The Monet exhibit was wonderful!
Framed print, cookie tin, and #CoffeeTableBk of Renoir's Luncheon of the Boating Party. I've been fascinated since I saw the original so many years ago. I'm in awe of how artists can make glass look so real. #NewYearNewBooks @Eggs @Alwaysbeenaloverofbooks

I adore this cosy image and quote. You can always rely on Van Gogh for wisdom and clarity.

pickGreat biography, very sensitive and loving with good realistic details. Took time to read since it is a bit old fashioned in style and includes some French which is usually explained. Jean, his son, the film director, writes very well for its time period, the late ‘50s. Worthwhile if you are into Art and France. I loved the artist‘s lack of pretense!
This book is taking a while but it‘s good. Here is a description of how Renoir “attacks” a painting.
Starting a book about the artist, Pierre Renoir, by his son the French film director.
A new lovely book arrived. Will have to wait to read (patient as ever, me).
