Umbrellas - Pierre-Auguste Renoir. 180.3x114.9
Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) - French painter, graphic artist and sculptor, one of the representatives of impressionism.
Noisy crowded Parisian street. Lots of umbrellas. The original thought: to convey the hustle and bustle and, as always with Renoir, French and even purely Parisian charm and charm (the master is far from psychologism) through the accumulation and crush of ... umbrellas. The artist takes the idea to capture a brief moment, momentary event. For this, it seems, nothing is needed - neither to build a scene, nor to take care of the actions and interactions of the characters. It is only necessary to seize the moment. The painting embodies the ideal of the aspirations of two arts - painting and photography: from the former - spirituality of perception, from the latter - "instantness" (the artist even cuts off the figures along the edges, as happens in photographs).
But with all the “instantness” of the event, the canvas itself was not written at once (judging by the date of creation). Renoir turned to him twice during his career. He began it as a “pure” impressionist, but soon began to experience disappointment in this style. The painter was greatly influenced by the trip to Italy, as a result of which he turned to older artistic methods, in particular to the art of Jean Auguste Ingres, a distinct outline of the figures appeared in the paintings. After returning to this work a few years later, Renoir rewrote the figure on the left.
The rapid changes taking place in the French fashion allowed researchers to date the painting - the second appeal of the master to it took place in 1886.
