PIERRE-AUGUSTE RENOIR (1841-1919)

 
<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>From the earliest days of painting during the nineteenth century, which was precipitated by the advent of Impressionism, Renoir established a reputation as the finest portrait painter among the emerging landscapists. Works such as Lise with a Parasol (1867) demonstrated his ability to capture the essence of his subjects with a distinctive flair, setting him apart from his peers. Inspired by a transformative trip to Italy in 1882, Renoir shifted his approach, emphasizing modeling and contours with smooth, blended handling, integrating a new found rigor and clarity reminiscent of the old masters. Often referred to as Renoir’s “Ingres period,” he retained the reputation of the painter best suited to manage the traditional process of recording a sitter's likeness with the distinctive flair and vibrancy of an Impressionist. </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3> </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>By 1890, Renoir’s style evolved again. He thinned his pigments to achieve a jewel-like translucence, infusing his works with a tender, ethereal quality. This final phase reflects the physical limitations of encroaching rheumatoid arthritis but also a deeper, more reflective approach to his subjects, capturing their inner light and character with subtle, luminous strokes. </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3> </font></div><br><br><div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>No longer obliged to rely upon society portrait commissions, by 1900, Renoir began to focus on portraits and studies of family, close friends, and neighbors. “Fillette à l’orange”, painted in 1911, extends our appreciation of his very personal, intimate style and reputation for imbuing his portraits of children with all the affectionate charm he could muster. It avoids the softer, generalized approach that prompted his son Jean’s remark that “we are all Renoir’s children, ”idealized versions of beauty and sensuality expressed in universal rather than with physiognomic specifics. We may never know her identity, but her likeness is vivid because Renoir concentrates on her face and expression. Nevertheless, the interplay of light and color highlights her features and brings to life the tender and affectionate nature characteristic of Renoir’s later portraits. An orange as an accessory is often included in portraiture as a symbol of fertility. Yet, here, it seems to serve as a formal element for the artist to demonstrate his skill at displaying its size, shape, and heft in this young girl's hand.</font></div> <div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black>From the earliest days of painting during the nineteenth century, which was precipitated by the advent of Impressionism, Renoir established a reputation as the finest portrait painter among the emerging landscapists.

"Kunst ist Gefühl; wenn Kunst erklärt werden muss, ist sie keine Kunst mehr". - Pierre-Auguste Renoir

Geschichte

Schon in den ersten Tagen der Malerei des neunzehnten Jahrhunderts, die durch das Aufkommen des Impressionismus ausgelöst wurde, erwarb sich Renoir den Ruf eines der besten Porträtmaler unter den aufstrebenden Landschaftsmalern. Mit Werken wie Lise mit Sonnenschirm (1867) bewies er seine Fähigkeit, das Wesen seiner Porträtierten mit unverwechselbarem Flair einzufangen, was ihn von seinen Kollegen abhob. Inspiriert von einer Reise nach Italien im Jahr 1882 änderte Renoir seine Herangehensweise und betonte die Modellierung und die Konturen mit einer glatten, übergangslosen Handhabung, wobei er eine neue Strenge und Klarheit einbrachte, die an die alten Meister erinnerte. Renoir, der oft als "Ingres-Periode" bezeichnet wird, behielt den Ruf des Malers, der am besten in der Lage war, den traditionellen Prozess der Erfassung des Abbilds eines Porträtierten mit dem unverwechselbaren Flair und der Lebendigkeit eines Impressionisten zu bewältigen.

Um 1890 entwickelt sich Renoirs Stil weiter. Er verdünnt seine Pigmente, um eine juwelenartige Transluzenz zu erreichen, die seinen Werken eine zarte, ätherische Qualität verleiht. In dieser letzten Phase spiegeln sich die körperlichen Einschränkungen durch die fortschreitende rheumatoide Arthritis wider, aber auch eine tiefere, reflektiertere Annäherung an seine Motive, deren inneres Licht und Charakter er mit subtilen, leuchtenden Strichen einfängt.

Um 1900 war Renoir nicht mehr auf Porträtaufträge der Gesellschaft angewiesen, sondern konzentrierte sich auf Porträts und Studien von Familienmitgliedern, engen Freunden und Nachbarn. Fillette à l'orange, gemalt 1911, erweitert unsere Wertschätzung für seinen sehr persönlichen, intimen Stil und seinen Ruf, seine Kinderporträts mit all dem liebevollen Charme zu versehen, den er aufbringen konnte. Es vermeidet die weichere, verallgemeinernde Herangehensweise, die seinen Sohn Jean zu der Bemerkung veranlasste, dass "wir alle Renoirs Kinder sind, "idealisierte Versionen von Schönheit und Sinnlichkeit, die sich eher in universellen als in physiognomischen Besonderheiten ausdrücken. Wir werden vielleicht nie ihre Identität erfahren, aber ihr Abbild ist lebendig, weil Renoir sich auf ihr Gesicht und ihren Ausdruck konzentriert. Dennoch hebt das Spiel von Licht und Farbe ihre Züge hervor und lässt die zärtliche und liebevolle Natur lebendig werden, die für Renoirs spätere Porträts charakteristisch ist. Die Orange als Accessoire wird in der Porträtmalerei oft als Symbol der Fruchtbarkeit verwendet. Hier scheint sie jedoch als formales Element zu dienen, mit dem der Künstler sein Geschick bei der Darstellung ihrer Größe, Form und ihres Gewichts in der Hand des jungen Mädchens unter Beweis stellt.

MARKTEINBLICKE UND WICHTIGE DETAILS

  • Kunstmarktforschung - Renoir Marktgrafik Januar, 1976 - Juni, 2024
  • Nach Angaben von Art Market Research mit Sitz in London sind die Marktpreise für Renoir seit 1976 um 5,5 % pro Jahr gestiegen.

  • Gemälde aus Renoirs späteren Jahren, darunter auch solche mit Kindern, sind im Vergleich zu seinen früheren Werken relativ selten. Diese Seltenheit macht sie noch begehrenswerter und kann zu höheren Auktionspreisen beitragen, wenn sie auf den Markt kommen.

  • Renoirs Figurenbilder, insbesondere seine Kinderporträts, sind für ihre Wärme, Menschlichkeit und zeitlose Anziehungskraft bekannt. Von den späten 1870er bis zu den 1880er Jahren entwickelte Renoir seine Herangehensweise an die Malerei von Kindern weiter und ging über den Impressionismus hinaus, indem er strukturierte Formen und eine reichhaltigere Farbpalette einführte.

  • In seinen späteren Jahren, insbesondere ab den 1890er Jahren, spiegeln Renoirs Kinderporträts einen klassischen und raffinierten Stil wider, der von den Alten Meistern beeinflusst ist und eine zeitlose Qualität anstrebt.

  • Mit leuchtenden Farben und nuancierten Lichteffekten unterstrich Renoir die Wärme und Lebendigkeit seiner Kinder, wie in Fillette à l'orange zu sehen ist. Renoir ging an seine Kinderporträts mit viel Feingefühl heran, indem er die einzigartige Persönlichkeit und den Charakter jedes einzelnen Kindes einfing und dabei technische Meisterschaft mit emotionaler Tiefe verband.
