Description
Printing reproduction of a famous Renoir painting, Dance in the City. The original masterpiece was created in 1883. Today it has been carefully recreated detail-by-detail, color-by-color to near perfection. In the 1870’s Renoir’s Impressionist technique reached its peak, with glorious accomplishment. His fully defined technique rendered facial expressions and movements masterfully. Renoir often used his friends and acquaintances such as fellow artists and writers. He spent weeks and sometimes months perfecting his paintings. Why not grace your home with this reproduced masterpiece? It is sure to bring many admirers! Pierre-Auguste Renoir loved to paint dance scenes, and this quality reproduction of Dance in the City recreates one of his finest works. The original was completed in 1883 as a companion to Dance in The Country, and Renoir portrays a dreaminess and tenderness that is utterly Victorian. Renoir uses longtime model Suzanne Valadon, with the fine brushstrokes and warm tones that he was known for. Dance in the City was produced soon after Renoir’s break from Impressionism, when he emphasized outlines of figures with a more disciplined, formal style. This classical approach inspired by Raphael makes this work a romantic snapshot in time that fits right in with older décor. The original belongs to the Musée d’Orsay in Paris, but with this hand-painted reproduction from overstockArt, it can hang in your home as well.
