Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Bal du moulin de la Galette, 1876, oil on canvas, 131 x 175 cm (Musée d'Orsay, Paris) Speakers: Dr. Beth Harris and Dr. Steven Zucker
Awesome commentary, the filtering of the sunlight is what makes this painting one of my favourites. I can easily imagine myself being a part of the bal, feeling the warmth and the smell of spring along with the music and refreshing drinks after a long day of work.
I bought this painting for my living room as a sort of antidote to the winter blues compounded by covid-19 isolation measures. It brings a feeling of light and ease that was very much needed. Love it so much. Thank you for this video! ❤️
What an absolute masterpiece. I’m just wild about Impressionism ❤️ what inspired me to begin painting... as always thank you so so much for posting these wonderful videos!
One of my favorite paintings of all time. You just feel cheerful looking at it. You feel the enjoyment of socializing as it must have been experienced in that moment long ago
having been to musee d'orsay and studied this pic a little, i have always been struck by the fleeting snapshot quality of it. to now know he did the entire canvas w/out previous pencil sketches blows my mind! how could he keep the dancers and those chatting in freeze-frame in his mind as he painted is mindboggling!
Its a very impresive picture remember me people hanging around in the park in a festival or ceremony.....I saw that picture around here where i live.......if i saw.it again m going to buy it.
If art is teaching me anything, it's validating my unwillingness to choose. I like loose brushwork *and* finish. I like having a composition lead my eyes somewhere. *but* also enjoy resting my eyes in many parts of a canvas. I love that artists have gone their own way, allowing us to have a wide variety of experiences today.
That makes sense to me. Pretty soon after I began to study art, I no longer had a favorite artist, a favorite style, a favorite work of art. My admiration has broadened to include nearly every genre, style, and era. I am in awe of human creativity.
@@smarthistory-art-history And now you're passing on that gift of exploration, discovery, and awe to silly girls like me - as well as countless others. It's a beautiful thing. 🥰
This painting marked the high point of French impressionism and Renoir's art itself... His late nudes mark the low point. It was as if he'd forgotten how to paint the human figure. Almost certainly, arthritis played a major part in this decline.
Akty Kobiece,które Renoir Malował W latach siedem Dziesiątych,nie są Tak wzniosłe jak Postacie z obrazów Renesansowych,lecz I nie tak drastycznie Wulgarne jak Olimpia Moneta Renoir nie okazywał Ciała Kobiecego jak Degas w ruchu - lecz W stanie Rozkosznego spoczynku. Renoi
Dr. Beth Harris & Dr. Steven Zucker so glad you guys are still making these videos!

You mean a poster reproduction of this painting
This hadn’t crossed my mind as a way to combat the winter blue, hope you are still enjoying it 😊
Renoir approaches what it feels like to observe human lives. That's what I love about his work.
Uplifting and one of our many favorites. We appreciate learning about all the works in your conversations. Thank you!
so thankful this channel exists.

in 1876 they were no longer a Royal Academy of Art in France. It was a Republic, the third one, with Alphonse Thiers, its president.
그림속 인물들의 표정이 설레임으로 들떠있어요 그곳의 분위기를 잘 표현해주는듯요
This painting is alive..

Akty Kobiece,które
Renoir
Malował
W latach siedem
Dziesiątych,nie są
Tak wzniosłe jak
Postacie z obrazów
Renesansowych,lecz
I nie tak drastycznie
Wulgarne jak Olimpia
Moneta
Renoir nie okazywał
Ciała Kobiecego jak
Degas w ruchu - lecz
W stanie
Rozkosznego spoczynku.
