Gabrielle Lisant 1910

"Gabrielle Lisant" is a portrait painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, created in 1910. The painting showcases a young woman, possibly Gabrielle Renard, the artist's daughter-in-law, in a red and white striped dress, engrossed in reading. The soft, brushstrokes and warm colors of the painting are characteristic of Renoir's Impressionist style, capturing a moment of quiet contemplation. This style, which flourished in late 19th-century France, emphasized the fleeting effects of light and color, and focused on everyday life, often portraying leisure activities and domestic scenes.
