Renoir

For anyone wanting more background about Auguste Renoir his son, Jean Renoir, wrote a memoir entitled, "Renoir, My Father." It is available in paperback. An Art in America quote on the back cover reads, "The most important personal document on Renoir to appear in English...one of the most engaging biographies ever written about an artist." It is illustrated with photographs and paintings. It looks like a very readable and intriguing book. I haven't started it yet but hope to have some of it read by our March meeting on the 24th.
