Auguste Renoir was the great Impressionist painter of the female form. His voluptuous, seductive women appear to be as delighted to be painted as the painter delighted in painting them. The paintings in this book include the early open air scenes along the Seine and in the gardens, as well as nudes and two portraits of the actress Jeanne Samary, one a head-and-shoulders, the other full-length. Although most of the paintings date from the 1870s and 1880s, there is a landscape dated 1902 which is strikingly different from the rest in its violent brushstrokes and the almost sketchy haste in which the artist rushed to depict the subject on the canvas. This set of beautiful, full-colour reproductions is a unique opportunity to see some of the little-known works of Renoir as well as some of the very famous ones.
