Art History Alive: The Great Masters Series – Pierre-Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) and Impressionism in France

Viewers might like to be invited to enter Renoir’s happy scenes in which women (always pretty) and men (always handsome) enjoy themselves in pleasurable activities such as dancing, boating, and dining. Working with natural light and bright color, throughout his life Renoir’s favorite subject was the female figure, preferably nude. His zest for life persisted even in his later years when he was crippled by arthritis.

Visit Renoir’s home “Les Collettes” in Cagnes-sur-Mer.
