The Seine at Argenteuil 1888

"The Seine at Argenteuil" (1888), painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, depicts a picturesque scene along the Seine River in France. The artist captured the tranquility of the afternoon with a lone sailboat gliding across the water. Renoir's signature Impressionistic style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors that give the landscape a sense of movement and light. The painting showcases Renoir's fascination with capturing the fleeting effects of sunlight on nature.
