Pierre-Auguste Renoir Environs Berneval 1879
Pierre-Auguste Renoir: Environs of Berneval, Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1879, Oil on canvas, This painting represents the rolling countryside behind the cliffs at Pourville, a small seaside resort town in northern France. Renoir depicted this little hamlet in several canvases from 1879. As in many of his landscapes of the 1870s, Renoir chose a very unconventional viewpoint. The viewer is seemingly located deep among the foreground bushes, which frame the right margin but also run across the entire foreground, denying us any clear foothold in the space depicted. Overall: 18 1/8 x 21 7/8 in. (46 x 55.5 cm)

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Pierre-Auguste Renoir's "Environs of Berneval" painted in 1879. The artwork depicts the picturesque rolling countryside behind the majestic cliffs at Pourville, a charming seaside resort town in northern France. Renoir was particularly drawn to this little hamlet and created several canvases capturing its beauty during that year. In this piece, Renoir employs an unconventional viewpoint, inviting the viewer to immerse themselves deep among the lush foreground bushes. These vibrant greenery frames the right margin while stretching across the entire foreground, creating a sense of intimacy and mystery within the depicted space. Measuring 18 1/8 x 21 7/8 inches (46 x 55.5 cm), this oil painting beautifully captures the essence of nature's tranquility and invites contemplation. The soft brushstrokes evoke a sense of movement and life within the landscape, showcasing Renoir's mastery in portraying light and atmosphere. With its idyllic scenery and unique perspective, "Environs of Berneval" transports us to a serene world where we can almost feel the gentle breeze rustling through leaves or hear distant waves crashing against cliffs. This remarkable artwork is not only a testament to Renoir's artistic genius but also serves as a timeless reminder of nature's enduring allure.
