This thick catalog is devoted to the glorious final three decades of works from Pierre-Auguste Renoir the decades in which the painter turned away from Impressionism and toward a more decorative approach informed by his own idiosyncratic interpretation of art history. The thinly brushed color and soft outlines in such later works as the "Odalisques" and Bathers of 191819 (a picture that Renoir described as "a springboard for future research") were much admired by younger artists like Bonnard Matisse and Picasso who gravitated to their sensuality and to the fleshy richness of his nudes.''20. Yüzyılda Renoir''Renoir'in Bonnard Matisse ve Picasso gibi sanatçıları etkilediği son 30 yılını inceleyen ve bu döneme ait eserlerin toplandığı harika bir kitap.
