Description
A woman in a wide yellow straw hat sits absorbed in a book, her orange dress rendered in warm, broken strokes that blend into the tall grass and foliage around her. The landscape opens behind her to a pale shoreline and a strip of water, but the setting stays loose and atmospheric, all attention gathered on her quiet, downward gaze.
Renoir painted this outdoor reading scene in 1917, near the end of his life; it is now held at the Petit Palais.
