Renoir is one of the largest painters of the XIX century and one of the most important and interesting representatives of impressionism. His paintings are always easily recognizable due to the sophistication of pictorial techniques and plot lightness. French critic Octave Mirbeau wrote of the artist: "Renoir seems to be one of those whose fame is undeniable... Renoir writes how he breathes... There are people who indulge in the temptation to feel everything with their eyes. Renoir's hand is designed to portray the happiness that the gaze experiences."
