Description

The Life and Works of Renoir by Janice Anderson. Auguste Renoir was one of the founders of Impressionism, famous for his cheerful, animated scenes of everyday life. After visiting Italy Renoir became dissatisfied with the 'blotting' techniques of Impressionism and concentrated instead on line and classical studies of the nude. 'This series on the life and works of the great painters provides an invaluable guide. In each volume a short introduction gives a quick biography of the artist and explains the elements of his or her painting style. 50 paintings are faithfully reproduced in full colour; and an extended caption to each fully explains the background to the work, its significance in the history of art, and its position in the complete canon of the artist's work'. The dust jacket has light general wear but the book remains tight and bright.
