In this delightful memoir, Jean Renoir, the director of such
masterpieces of the cinema as "Grand Illusion" and "The Rules of
the Game," tells the life story of his father, Pierre-Auguste
Renoir, the great Impressionist painter. Recounting
Pierre-Auguste's extraordinary career, beginning as a painter of
fans and porcelain, recording the rules of thumb by which he
worked, and capturing his unpretentious and wonderfully engaging
talk and personality, Jean Renoir's book is both a wonderful double
portrait of father and son and, in the words of the distinguished
art historian John Golding, it "remains the best account of Renoir,
and, furthermore, among the most beautiful and moving biographies
we have."
