Художник счастья.                              

                                                                         (  1841  - 1919 )                                                              

 

    

Для меня картина...должна быть всегда приятной, радостной и красивой, да - красивой! В жизни достаточно скучных вещей, не будем фабриковать еще новых. Я знаю, трудно добиться признания того, что живопись может быть очень большой живописью, оставаясь радостной".

Ренуар

 

   

    Среди знаменитых художников мира встречаются имена, упоминание которых сразу вызывает душевную радость. Есть художники, которых многие знают, их творчеству посвящены многочисленные монографии, книги, научные статьи. А есть художники, которых просто любят. О них тоже пишут, но подчас предпочитают издавать репродукции их произведений, чтобы без сложных комментариев и специальных пояснений читатели и зрители могли любоваться их работами. Таков Ренуар.
