This fascinating new book looks in detail at Renoir's influences,
life and works. The first part begins examines his style; it covers
Renoir's techniques and training: painting copies at the Louvre;
his time at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts; meeting his muse, Lise
Trehot; working with fellow impressionist artists and his struggles
for recognition. The volume then investigates Renoir's move away
from Impressionism, his stay in Guernsey and also the changes to
his personal life and the way in which these informed his work. It
also documents his eventual success in the art world and considers
the devastating series of illnesses and losses that blighted the
end of Renoir's long painting career. The second part of the book
is a gallery of Renoir's work in 300 glorious pictures, each
accompanied by an in-depth analysis of its context within his life,
his technique and his body of work as a whole.
