Untitled is a 1897 ink by Auguste Renoir, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Modern Art.
This sketch shows two women outdoors. One wears a wide-brimmed straw hat with a red flower, holding a fan. The other has a white wig with curls and a dark cloak. Their faces are soft, but the lines are loose and quick. The artist used smudgy, sketchy strokes—almost like a quick drawing. The colors are muted except for the bright red flower and fan. Check out lithography to see how this print was made.
Pierre-Auguste Renoir was born on 25 February 1841 in Limoges, the son of a tailor and a seamstress.
