The Branch at Croissy, painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir in 1911 captures a quiet arm of the Seine near Croissy-sur-Seine, a stretch of river that had drawn Renoir and his fellow Impressionists since the earliest days of the movement in the 1860s and 1870s, rendered here in the warm, softly atmospheric palette of his late career. Lush riverside foliage and shimmering reflected light fill the canvas with the gentle, sun-dappled harmony that defines Renoir's mature landscape work. A luminous return, decades later, to the waters that helped give birth to French Impressionism itself.
Artist: Pierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1919). Date: 1911.
