Summary:
One of the leading lights of the Impressionist movement, Pierre-Auguste Renoir remains a towering figure in art history with enduring public appeal. Sunbathed, charming and sensual, his work shows painting at its most lighthearted and luminous, while championing the plein air and colour innovations of his time. From the abundant output of his lengthy career, this essential artist introduction selects key Renoir works to explore his innovations in the art of painting, as much as his traditions in pursuit of beauty, harmony and the female form.
