A previously unknown Renoir painting sells for €1.8 million at auction.

The work by French impressionist painter Auguste Renoir of his toddler son Jean sold for €1.8 million at a Paris auction on Tuesday.

The oil painting, ‘L’enfant et ses jouets - Gabrielle et le fils de l’artiste, Jean', had never been exhibited or sold before.

It belonged to Jean’s godmother, Jeanne Baudot, who passed the painting on to her inheritors.

Bien que souffrant de rhumatisme inflammatoire très violent pendant les vingt dernières années de sa vie, Auguste Renoir a continué à peindre jusqu’à ses derniers jours en tenant le pinceau coincé entre ses doigts. Les bandelettes, elles, visaient à protéger ses paumes de la douleur des ongles qui s’enfonçaient dans la chair sous l’effet de sa maladie.

The “Luncheon of the Boating Party”, painted 1881, by Impressionist artist Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Oil on canvass.

Auguste Renoir, was a leading #French painter in the development of the #Impressionist style.

Renoir’s #paintings are notable for their vibrant light and saturated color, most often focusing on people in intimate and candid settings.

All subjects in this painting were known to the artist (apparently!) and the female playing with the dog would become Renoir’s wife.

It’s a gorgeous piece and it’s presently on display in ‘The Phillips Collection’ in Washington, D.C.
