Supplemental 5





After reading all the biographies on the impressionist artist I concluded that I found Pierre-Auguste Renoir most interesting. This is because he showed such incredible talent at a very young age and soon after began painting plates in a porcelain factory. Renoir attended Atelier Gleyre where he met and became close with Claude Monet, Alfred Sisley, and Jean Frédéric Bazille. They mostly influenced his art. I mostly enjoyed the multiple colors used in his paintings and the lack of browns and blacks. One of my favorite pieces of his was A Dance in the City, because of its extreme beauty and perfection. This piece reminds me of the perfect first dance as a couple where there is still true love and beauty present.
