One of Renoir's early portraits, A Girl with a Watering Can, has all the tender charm of its subject, not sentimentalized, but clearly relished. Renoir stoops down to the child's height so that we look at her world from her own altitude. Solid little girl though she is, she presents herself with the fragile charm of the flowers. This print is framed in a brown and gold frame and is triple matted in white, yellow and pink, the framed print measures a total of 30?x 23.75?. This print would be a great addition to any art enthusiast?s collection and is remarkably priced.
Renoir is noted for the harmony of his lines, the brilliance of his color, and the intimate charm of his wide variety of subjects. Unlike other impressionists he was as much interested in painting the single human figure or family group portraits as he was in landscapes; unlike them, too, he did not subordinate composition and plasticity of form to attempts at rendering the effect of light.
Renoir was born in Limoges on February 25, 1841. He studied painting formally in 1862-63 at the academy of the Swiss painter Charles Gabriel Gleyre in Paris. Renoir's early work was influenced by two French artists, Claude Monet in his treatment of light and the romantic painter Eugène Delacroix in his treatment of color. Renoir first exhibited his paintings in Paris in 1864, but he did not gain recognition until 1874, at the first exhibition of painters of the new impressionist school.
