Arum and Conservatory Plants 1864

Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s “Arum and Conservatory Plants” from 1864 is a vibrant still life that captures the beauty of a variety of blooming flowers. The lush greenery of the conservatory provides a verdant backdrop to the colorful floral display. This painting reflects Renoir's early interest in the Impressionist style, with its focus on capturing the fleeting effects of light and color, which are evident in the delicate brushstrokes and the overall vibrancy of the composition. The painting is currently housed in the Oskar Reinhart Foundation in Winterthur, Switzerland.
