Pierre Auguste Renoir. 1841 - 1919
Born 1841 the son of a tailor in Limoges, France. When he was only 4 years old his family decided to move to Paris. When Pierre became 13 he was apprenticed to a painter in a factory which made and decorated china-ware. Here he was trained to paint in the 18th century style. To earn extra money he sold copies of  18th century paintings which he copied in the Louvre, Paris and also attended classes in the evenings to try to improve his painting technique. When he was  21 he joined the studio of Gleyre where he became aquatinted with other artists and became friends with Claude Monet and Alfred Sisley. His painting was interrupted by the onset of the war  between France and Prussia and during this time only a few paintings were completed. After the was over, his paintings began to become much richer in colour, mainly due to his friendship and involvement with the Impressionists.  The majority of the Impressionists were involved with painting nature and landscapes, but Renoir chose to include figures and people in his pictures and his style began to progress and develop as he began to include children as the main subject with a garden or landscape background. The children in his paintings appear to be aware of their importance within the picture and his skill of portraying the young child in a floral background proved very popular with his clients.
He painted right up to the day he died even though he had extreme difficulty holding his brushes due to a long and painful  illness. He became one of the most important of the French Impressionists and his paintings are enjoyed by many art lovers throughout the world.
Died 1919
