Perziken
circa 1904
Look at these fuzzy, sun-drenched peaches! Renoir painted them with such loose, swirling brushstrokes that you can almost feel their soft skin. Created around 1904, this still life comes from his later years when he was battling severe arthritis, yet his work never lost its warmth. He famously believed art should be 'friendly and joyous,' and these glowing fruits are a perfect example of that happy philosophy.
