Pierre-Auguste Renoir \u2013 La Loge (The Theatre Box)<\/h1>\n

\n\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n<\/colgroup>\n<\/table>\n

\nLa Loge (The Theatre Box) is an oil painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir from 1874. The original measures 80.0 x 63.5 cm, is recorded under inventory number P.1948.SC.338 and belongs to the collection of The Courtauld in London. Our art reproduction La Loge is a hand-painted painting in oil on canvas, in eight sizes from 65 x 80 to 140 x 170 cm.<\/p>\n

\nRenoir showed the canvas at the first Impressionist group exhibition in Paris in 1874. The woman in the black-and-white striped gown has already lowered her opera glasses and has become the centre of attention; the man behind her has raised his to look at someone else in the audience. The two figures were posed by the model Nini Lopez and the painter\u2019s brother, Edmond. Renoir set out to make a symphony in black and white, which is why the stripes of the dress are laid in so decisively.<\/p>\n

\nOur version is not a print. In this subject the difference is easy to see: the stripes, the pearls and the lace are built from individual strokes of oil colour, laid side by side with a brush. The paint keeps the thickness of the load and the track of the bristles, which printed paper cannot imitate, so an oil painting on canvas reads differently under changing light than a flat printed surface does.<\/p>\n

\nThe upright format and the dark, elegant range work well above a sideboard, in a dining room, or in a room with dark wood, where the picture holds the eye without loud colour. For a smaller wall 80 x 100 cm is enough; above a larger piece of furniture we recommend 100 x 120 cm.<\/p>\n

\nWe paint to order, and in other sizes on request. Before despatch we send you a photograph of the finished canvas for your approval. Every art reproduction La Loge leaves the studio ready to hang, stretched on a wooden frame.<\/p>\n
