Description:
|
|
This landscape shows a wheat field near Wargemont, in Normandy, where Renoir spent several summers at the estate of his friend and patron, the banker Paul Bérard. Like Renoir’s earlier landscapes, this later picture was painted outdoors, in one or more sessions. Wheatfield was painted at a time when Renoir’s early success had brought him numerous commissions for portraits. By contrast, this landscape is remarkable for its simplicity and its blunt rejection of anecdote and picturesque detail.
