雷诺阿水彩《海滩场景》图片

作品简介

This tiny watercolor was made on the southeast coast of Guernsey, an island in the English Channel. Renoir took great delight in Guernsey, as he remarked in a letter to his dealer Paul Durand-Ruel. There is “no better sight than this mixture of women and men crowded together on these rocks. You would think you were in a landscape by Watteau rather than in real life. I will therefore have a source of real, graceful subjects of which I’ll be able to make use.”

这幅小巧的水彩画创作于根西岛东南海岸——这座英吉利海峡上的小岛曾令雷诺阿倍感欢欣，正如他在致画商保罗·杜朗-卢埃尔的书信中所赞叹的那样："再没有比男男女女簇拥于礁石间的景象更动人的了，恍若置身华托笔下的田园幻境，而非真实人间。如此我便能汲取这鲜活优雅的题材，为创作所用。"
