Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1897 - Bathers Playing with a Crab - fine art print

General specifications as provided from the museum's website (© - by The Cleveland Museum of Art - The Cleveland Museum of Art)

After viewing Renaissance paintings during a trip to Italy in 1881, Renoir attempted to bring a greater order and stability to Impressionism. He expressed this new ambition in a series of paintings of nude bathers, a subject that preoccupied him from 1883 until his death in 1919. In this painting he combined the loose, shimmering effects of pure Impressionism with the observations of solid forms in space derived from Italian Renaissance art. At the same time, the luminous colors and the long graceful curves of the backs, arms, thighs, and hair echo the soft, rounded forms of clouds and waves, suggesting a harmony between the figures and their surroundings.
