Description
View of the Seacoast near Wargemont in Normandy opens onto a quiet stretch of northern French coastline. Auguste Renoir balances the broad sky and distant water against the land’s steep, weathered forms, suggesting the shifting light and air of a day by the sea.
Renoir painted outdoors near the Wargemont country house of his patron Paul Bérard in 1880. Working quickly as the light changed, he caught the shapes and atmosphere that made this Normandy coast so compelling to painters of his generation. View of the Seacoast near Wargemont in Normandy offers a more contemplative side of an artist celebrated for scenes of Parisian life.
