Description:
|
Renoir visited the great museums in Madrid, Dresden, Amsterdam and London in this period, and this pursuit of the art of the past was reflected in his painting by a gradual return to a more fluid technique, which owed a great deal to French 18th-century painting as well as to Titian, Diego Velázquez and Peter Paul Rubens. This is an excellent example of the spirit in which Renoir interpreted a traditional subject. (Source: Grove Art Online; http://www.oxfordart online.com/)
