Promenade Undergrowth \u2013 a canvas filled with foliage<\/h2>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n<\/table>\n

Promenade Undergrowth is an oil painting on canvas by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, painted in 1910. The original measures 46.0 x 55.0 cm, is recorded under inventory number MNR 207, is in the custody of the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay and is shown at the Renoir museum in Cagnes-sur-Mer. Our canvas wall art Promenade Undergrowth is a hand-painted painting in oils.<\/p>\n

Three small figures on the path, barely made out<\/h3>\n

The canvas is almost entirely filled with foliage. Among small green, yellow and blue strokes, three tiny figures on a path can just be made out at the bottom \u2014 one in red, two in white. Renoir is not painting a scene here but the light breaking through the canopy: contours are given up altogether, and space is made out of differences in colour alone.<\/p>\n

Why hand-painted, not a print<\/h3>\n

Our version is not a print. With a subject like this the difference is at its plainest: the dense foliage is hundreds of separate touches, set down one after another with a brush. The paint keeps a grain and depth that printed paper cannot imitate, and every art reproduction we make therefore leaves the studio as a single object rather than a copy.<\/p>\n

In the room<\/h3>\n

A green, quiet subject with no marked centre works well where a painting must not take over the room \u2013 in a hallway, a bedroom or an office. In a room with dark furniture it lightens the wall; in a bright Scandinavian interior it adds colour without restlessness, because no stroke pulls the eye to itself. The upright format takes a narrower wall too, between two windows or beside a door. For a bedroom 75 x 90 cm is enough, for a living room we suggest 90 x 110 cm, and on a large wall 120 x 150 cm works, where the three figures on the path can be made out among the leaves. Below 60 x 70 cm the figures disappear and only a green area is left.<\/p>\n

What you receive<\/h3>\n

We paint the canvas to order, by hand and for you alone, so every copy is made on its own; the canvas is usually painted and dried within three to four weeks. If you prefer, we will paint it in a size that is not on the list. Before despatch we send you a photograph of the finished canvas for your approval, and only then does the painting go out. Promenade Undergrowth arrives stretched on a wooden frame and ready to hang, wrapped in protective film and in rigid packaging, with no further stretching or finishing needed.<\/p>\n
