About this work
A drypoint by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Hand signed by the artist.
Depicting a serene view of two young women posing for their portrait, this extremely delicate work expresses the beauty and elegance of Renoir’s portraiture. 1894, this work is from the troisième planche, or Third Version of the plate (the prior two feature the girls facing in the opposite direction with much less detail) . Featured in the 1894 publication of La Vie Artistique by Gustave Geffroy and also in the 1921 work, Renoir et ses Amis by Georges Rivière. Noted by Stella, “As the subtitle explains, Berthe Morisot’s daughter, Julie Manet, and her cousin are the models for this subject.” The two figures are delicately composed with detail of the hatched lines throughout the work. Seated in elegant dresses and wearing large hats with ribbons on them, the face of only one figure is visible while the other is obscured with her back to the viewer. Looking away from us in contemplation while having her hat adjusted, the left figure appears to sit back in space through the use of lighter values. With her back to us, the right figure appears as though she is closer, with more line work and stronger values throughout her hair and hat. Wonderfully executed, this work is a strong example of the impressionist reflection on life as that of light and beauty
