Nini in the Garden (Nini Lopez)

Description

Nini in the Garden by Auguste Renoir places a seated woman within a sunlit tangle of leaves and garden growth. Her face and pale dress emerge from quick touches of green, blue, pink and gold, as if figure and foliage share the same changing light.

The loosely suggested chair and distant building give structure to a scene that remains wonderfully airy. In Nini in the Garden, Renoir makes the sensation of an outdoor afternoon as compelling as the portrait itself.
