Auguste Renoir was among the greats of the Impressionist Movement, and though he moved from loose brushwork, suggested borders, and diffuse reflections of that style to a refined realism in his later years, he always preferred a female as the subject. Renoir enjoyed rendering simple and ordinary “snapshots” with his inimitable execution, as here in “La Promenade”.
