This text traces Renoir's development from an apprentice painter of porcelain to the consumate master painter he became. Beginning with his early works, in which he explored the experiments with subdivision of colour and broken brushwork that obsessed his fellow Impressionist Monet, to his final figurative masterpieces, which recall the classicism of antique sculpture, this book gives a complete overview of Renoir's life and work.
