Renoir & Love
Paris, France
Musée d’Orsay
17 March to 19 July 2026
Auguste Renoir, Alphonsine Fournaise, 1879
According to Pierre Auguste Renoir, “a picture should be a pleasant thing, joyful and pretty”. In the first retrospective of his work to be held in Paris since 1985, the Musée d’Orsay will display Renoir’s works between the 1860s and the 1880s, a period during which he developed a light, bright and fluid manner of painting, focusing on new subject matter such as the relationships between men and women, as well as modern life. Whilst in Paris, you may also wish to visit the Musée de Montmartre which was Renoir’s studio in the late 1870s, in an area of Paris to which many an artist and bohemian flocked at this time.
