Moulin de la Galette , he made also equally famous painting Swing. It originated in the garden studio. Both artworks were created at the same time, so they have several common features as fuzziness and lighting effects. From the image emanate happy and carefree moments - young man courting a girl (with a slightly raised petticoat), for who served as a model Renoir's favourite model Jeanne. A curious little girl and a friend of the couple observe the event. The painting has a vertical composition and it is enhanced by the shape of swing and tree, whose profile corresponds to the figure of the girl.

Pierre Auguste Renoir (1841-1919). One of the greatest French
Impressionists. He painted modestly, humbly studying the works of other painters. His paintings are spontaneous and full of loose, fine brush strokes. Courbet inspired him to depict everyday scenes of ordinary people and Corot influenced Renoir by his love of nature and the use of subtle tones. However, Renoir was most influenced by
Manet, who is known for his colourfulness, small spatial depth and broad brushstrokes.
Renoir’s images are direct, capturing the optimistic atmosphere of Parisian streets and cafes. His nudes are known for their purity, fineness, and the play of light on the human body. Among his best-known works are
The Swing (capturing a beloved courting scene, a festive moment, full of colour and light),
Moulin de la Galette (a symbol of Impressionism showing an open-air summer dance festival),
Luncheon of the Boating Party (an idealized portrait of Renoir’s friends, including his future wife). The image shows the abandon of the upper classes and their leisure time. Among his prized paintings is a series of three paintings
Dance in the Country, Dance in Bougival and
Dance in the City (in which he masterfully painted movement and the atmosphere of dance).
