Pierre Auguste Renoir Biography

Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841-1919). French Impressionist - Born in Limoges, France on February 25, 1841. Renoir began painting as a child in a porcelain factory in Paris painting designs on china continuing on to copy paintings on lampshades and fans. Renoir's formal training to study painting began in 1862-53 under Charles Gabriel Gleyre in Paris, France. Renoir became friends with Claude Monet and admired Monet's paining effects of light . In 1874 Renoir joined the new impressionist painters in their the first exhibition. In 1883 Renoir held a solo exhibit at the Durand-Ruel Gallery in Paris. He was as interested in painting the human figure as he was the landscape and still lifes of flowers and fruit. Many of his famous paintings show the interactions of people in their daily lives. Among these are the famous "Luncheon of the Boating Party", " Les Deux Soeurs", "The Swing", "Woman with Fan", and "Dance at Bougival". Pierre Auguste Renoir saw beauty in the subjects he painted whether the nude female form, pretty landscapes, still lifes or pretty children. He wanted to portray the beautiful side of life - remarking their were enough unpleasant things as it was. Renoir became crippled with rheumatism in his last years yet continued to paint until his death in 1919.
