戴帽子的女子半身像 by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, circa 1915

Created when Renoir was nearly 75 and suffering from severe rheumatoid arthritis, this sketch shows his undying love for light and color. He likely had brushes tied to his hands to paint, yet these loose, energetic strokes of pink and yellow still capture a woman basking in summer sunshine. The unfinished, airy quality is classic Impressionism, prioritizing the feeling of a fleeting moment over strict realism.
