Choose options
Snowy Landscape (Paysage de neige), painted by Pierre-Auguste Renoir around 1875, captures a quiet stretch of countryside under fresh snow, its bare trees and rooftops rendered in cool whites, dusky greys, and muted ochres. The brushwork is delicate and broken, dissolving the chill of winter into a soft, atmospheric whole that anticipates the painter's mature manner. Snow scenes are exceedingly rare in Renoir's output, which makes this study from his early Impressionist years all the more striking; the painting is held in the collection of the Musée de l'Orangerie in Paris.
Artist: Pierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1919). Date: 1875.
