Pierre-Auguste Renoir “Les Parapluies” Les Sanguines Dessin

Pierre-Auguste Renoir (February 25, 1841—December 3, 1919) was a French artist who was a leading painter in the development of the Impressionist style. As a celebrator of beauty, and especially feminine sensuality, it has been said that “Renoir is the final representative of a tradition which runs directly from Rubens to Watteau”.

One of several, to be offered on eBay from a collection. Published in a Limited edition of 250 impressions, by the Shoman Art Co, New York, 1948. #82 out of a total of 250 (see Image of Colophon; that can be downloaded). This one is NOT included. Each work is NOT numbered in the print, only the Colophon is! That was published with these works.

These are wonderful lithographs AFTER the sketches/watercolors and drawn works. Published by and with the approval of the Artist's estate. Sheet measures 10.50 by 13 inches each and in good condition with corner slightly bent (very minor, no problem when correctly matted). Very little foxing on verso and with the Plate # as published.
