Portrait of Jean Renoir 1895

"Portrait of Jean Renoir" is a pastel portrait by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, created in 1895. This work depicts the artist's son, Jean Renoir, as a young boy, capturing his innocent gaze and delicate features. The pastel medium is evident in the soft, blended strokes and muted colors, characteristic of Renoir's style. The piece is a fine example of Impressionism, a movement that emphasizes capturing fleeting moments and light through loose brushwork and a focus on color. The painting is currently held in a private collection.
