Description
A young woman lifts both arms above her head, gathering her auburn hair with her fingertips, her gaze cast downward in quiet concentration. A loose white cloth slips from her shoulders, wrapped around her hips as she pauses mid-gesture. The pose is simple and unguarded, caught as though the viewer had just stepped into the room.
Renoir surrounds her with a warm, hazy background of red, ochre and green strokes that give no clear setting, letting all the attention fall on the soft rose and cream tones of her skin. The whole canvas has a glowing, intimate warmth to it.
This portrait reproduces beautifully as a museum-quality giclee print on canvas or fine-art paper, where those warm rose and ochre tones stay soft and glowing. It is available in a range of sizes, so you can scale the piece to suit an intimate corner or a larger wall.
