Oarsmen at Chatou, painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir in 1879, gathers a group of figures along the grassy banks of the Seine, with a red-orange skiff drawn up at the water's edge and a sailboat and lone rower crossing the river beyond. The brushwork is loose and broken, built on luminous blues, soft greens, and warm flesh tones that capture the dappled light of a summer afternoon; the man in the boat is thought to be the artist's brother Edmond, with painter Gustave Caillebotte among the figures on the bank. Chatou, a favorite gathering place for Renoir and his circle, gave the artist one of his most beloved subjects: the easy, sun-warmed pleasures of riverside boating life in the full flowering of French Impressionism.

Artist: Pierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1919). Date: 1879.

Oarsmen at Chatou, 1879 by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Impressionist Riverside Wall Art Canvas Print.

A note on this reproduction: this print renders in brighter, warmer tones, with more vivid greens along the riverbank and crisper white highlights on the boaters' clothing. A darker, more muted reproduction of this same painting is also available in our collection.
