FROM THE BARNES FOUNDATION’S CATALOG
Employing ebullient swirls and dashes of color but almost no descriptive detail, Renoir expresses all the vitality of the shifting clouds, foliage, and water of the natural landscape. Experimentation and relaxation motivated the production of his late landscapes—the majority of which were painted in the vicinity of Les Collettes. Although he was afflicted by debilitating arthritis in his last years, Renoir's condition did not prevent him from painting out of doors. He constructed a glass-enclosed studio on the estate to continue immortalizing the southern landscape he adored so immensely.
