Mont Sainte-Victoire seen from Bellevue is a landscape painting dating from around 1886, by the French artist Paul Cézanne.

The subject of the painting is the Montagne Sainte-Victoire in Provence in southern France.

This particular mountain, that stood out in the surrounding landscape, he could see from his house, and he painted it in on numerous occasions.
