Renoir's timelessly charming paintings are the embodiment of happiness, love, and beauty; it is no doubt because of this that he is the most popular of the impressionists. TASCHEN's Renoir, the most complete retrospective book of this painter's work, examines in detail the history and motivation behind the legend. For this monograph, we have chosen 600 of his masterpieces that best demonstrate his immense talent and historical importance. With a complete chronology, bibliography, and index of works, as well as photos and sketches illustrating Renoir's life and work, TASCHEN's Renoir is the essential reference book for this painter of happiness and poet of love. Oh, and did we mention the gorgeous, large-format colour reproductions?
