Landscape at Wargemont, painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir in 1879, looks across the rolling green country around Wargemont in Normandy, with fields, trees, and pale rooftops gathered beneath a soft northern sky. The brushwork is loose and feathered, the palette built on luminous greens, dusty pinks, and silvery blues that catch the moist Norman light. The Norman countryside, with its quiet villages and wide horizons, offered the Impressionists a steady alternative to the bright Mediterranean motifs further south. The picture distills a hushed summer afternoon into a radiant Impressionist landscape.
