Landscape
by MIERIS, Frans van, the Younger, Oil on canvas, 14 x 19 cm
In Renoir’s late period, when he no longer pursued the expression of lighting effects or concerned himself with thorough drawing, he emerged in full measure as a master of sensuous, baroque colour. In his paintings, the everydayness dear to the Impressionists gave way to the classical genres: landscape, still-life, and the nude.
