The model is Renoir's mistress, Lise Tréhot, who wears a day dress and straw hat with simple trimmings. Over her shoulder we can spot the banks of the Seine River on the outskirts of Paris, a location associated with leisure activities of the bohemian set. Painted before Renoir developed his Impressionist style, the portrait presents a solidly modeled figure rendered in broad, flat strokes. The work reveals the influence of Gustave Courbet, whom Renoir had met the year before.
