Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841 – 1919) was a French painter, one of the key figures of the Impressionism. During his youth Renoir often visited the Louvre to study the French master painters. Then, he began studying art in Paris. It was an important part of his live because during these years he met Alfred Sisley, Claude Monet and Frederic Bazille. Nevertheless, initially Pierre was influenced by Delacroix. Today Pierre Auguste Renoir paintings are possibly the most popular, recognized, and usually reproduced images in the art’s history. There is common to find Renoir’s oil painting reproductions.

Pierre Renoir experienced his initial recognition when six of his works were hung in the first Impressionist exhibition in 1874. Fortunately, the same year two of his works also were exhibited in London.
