Pierre Auguste Renoir is a 1905 by Jean-Louis Forain, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a man in profile, wearing a loose hat pulled low over his forehead. His left arm rests on a surface, fingers spread wide, while his right hand holds something near his chest. The lines are quick and rough, with no fine details—just loose strokes that suggest form. The drawing looks like a quick study, maybe done in a few minutes. The artist didn’t focus on realism here—just the basic shapes and mood. If you like this sketchy style, check out Jean Louis Forain.
Jean-Louis Forain (French pronunciation: ; 23 October 1852 – 11 July 1931) was a French Impressionist painter and printmaker, working in media including oils, watercolour, pastel, etching and lithograph.
