  1. "Girl in a Red Ruff," Pierre-Auguste Renoir, c. 1896.

    One of the all-time great Impressionists, Renoir (1841-1919) was becoming disillusioned with Impressionism in the 1880s. He traveled in Italy, partly to visit museums and partly seeking relief from the rheumatoid arthritis that was hindering his life at the time. (He ended up moving to the Mediterranean coast of France, hoping the warm weather would help.)

    He was profoundly influenced by Renaissance art, the Neoclassicists (especially Ingres), and the Rococo school, and sought to incorporate more of their style, rather than his usual thing. It didn't entirely last; he ended up re-incorporating some of his Impressionist stylings, but the influence remained. At this point in his life, most of his work involved women in various settings and costumes.

    The unidentified woman here is all fresh rosy cheeks and dewy lips, with her hair demurely up in a bun. The white outfit and red ruff makes me wonder if she's meant to be a clown or commedia dell'arte character. She's got the formal posing of a Neoclassical painting, but the colors and warm lighting, and some of the blurred lines, of Renoir's best Impressionist work.

    Happy Portrait Monday!

  12. "Roses in a Crystal Vase," Pierre-Auguste Renoir, c. 1879.

    Y'all know Renoir by now. And if you don't you should.

    He loved painting flowers, and used them as an excuse to experiment with color and shading. He also enjoyed being able to just PAINT something lovely, rather than being expected to tell a story. This also hearkens back to his beginnings, when as a 13-year-old he painted flowers on plates in a Sevres factory.

    The roses will be blooming before long, if not already, so this is a perfect painting for this time of year. I'm a bit intrigued by the vase, and assume it's just a pitcher that was pressed into service. But that lends to the Impressionists' shabby-chic charm.

    Happy Flower Friday!

  17. "Seascape," Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1879.

    Y'all know Renoir. This is a great dramatic painting, not the usual Renoir style as he did few seascapes. On one hand, it's almost pretty in its gray, blue, violet, and green, but at the same time, the crashing waves and dark clouds give it a drama that's almost worthy of the Romantics.

    Some find this canvas overly pretty and tame, but to me, this is the wildness of the sea through Renoir's lens.

  22. "Young Woman Sewing," Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1879.

    Y'all know Renoir. The model for this may have been Aline Charigot, who later became Mrs. Renoir.

    This canvas seems to be more about color than anything else...while the woman's appearance and outfit are fairly plain, the way they're depicted is not, and the way Renoir uses blending of colors to create an overall impression is remarkable. If you look close, you can see patches of colors that all come together to form a whole.

    I also give a nod to how the colorful bouquet reflects the brightly-patterned cloth in the woman's hands. This is a scene that would otherwise seem sweetly simplistic, if not saccharine, but a closer look shows the remarkable technique involved.

  28. "Camille Monet and Her Son Jean in the Garden at Argenteuil," Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1874.

    Everyone knows Renoir, the quintessential Impressionist. This is from the summer of 1874, when he, Monet, and Manet all worked close to each other. Monet's first wife, Camille, posed more for his friends than for him, but apparently that was not a source of any tension. In fact, this was a sort of double modeling session...Manet also painted the same scene at the same time, but in his own style.

    Camille Monet suffered from various health problems and died young, but she is depicted in multiple paintings by her husband and his friends.

    A great summertime scene!

    From the National Gallery of Art, Washington, DC.
