Description
Painted in 1877 on a round canvas, this head study presents a young woman gazing directly out at the viewer, her reddish-blond hair falling loosely across her forehead in soft bangs. Renoir sets her face against a swirling background of blue and green.
The tondo format concentrates attention on her calm, open expression and rosy complexion, and the loose, feathered brushwork around her hair and shoulders is typical of Renoir’s rapid, informal head studies from this period.
Choose a hand-painted oil reproduction on canvas, worked stroke by stroke by our artists, or a fade-resistant giclee canvas print of this 1877 tondo. Both options are made to order in a range of sizes and shipped ready to hang.
