Description
A figure in a vivid orange-red dress bends forward at the center of the canvas, dark auburn hair catching the light, with a paler blue-grey garment visible just behind her. Along the bottom edge, a row of round pink and white shapes reads as croquet balls set out on the grass, and the outdoor setting is sketched in loose strokes of ochre ground, green foliage at upper left and a strip of blue sky or water at upper right.
Painted with quick, energetic brushwork and bold color rather than fine detail, the study captures a moment of movement and pose, the kind of working sketch Renoir made ahead of a larger outdoor genre scene.
This study is offered as a hand-painted oil reproduction or as an archival canvas print, made to order in the size of your choice.
