| At Renoir's Home, rue St-Georges (formerly The Artist's Studio, rue St.-Georges), 1876 Pierre-Auguste Renoir French, 1841-1919 Oil on canvas 18-1/8 x 15 in. (46 x 38.1 cm) Norton Simon Art Foundation M.1978.13.1.P © 2012 Norton Simon Art Foundation On view Renoir's only studio group portrait records an informal conversation among his friends in his Montmartre studio. The central figure holding a book and appearing to lead the discussion is the art critic and Renoir's biographer, Georges Rivière. The bald, bearded man partially hidden to the right is painter Camille Pissarro. Less definite are the identities of the other three men. The animated, delicate brushwork that dances over the surface is typical of Renoir's works of this period. View Provenance
