Description
This 1893 portrait shows a young girl absorbed in reading, her head bowed forward so that her eyes fall on a book held just out of view at the bottom edge of the canvas. Her brown hair is gathered with a crisp white bow.
A pink rose is pinned to the striped white and grey pinafore she wears over her dress, and Renoir sets her against a warm, textured ochre and green background, the soft focus on her lowered face and quiet posture giving the picture its gentle, everyday intimacy.
This 1893 portrait is available as a hand-painted oil reproduction on canvas or as an archival giclee canvas print, both made to order in a range of sizes. Every reproduction arrives stretched and ready to hang, so this reading girl can find a place on your wall.
