Pierre-Auguste Renoir \u2013 Dance in the City<\/h1>\n

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

\nDance in the City is an oil painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir from 1883. The original measures 180.0 x 90.0 cm, is recorded under inventory number RF 1978 13 and belongs to the collection of the Mus\u00e9e d\u2019Orsay in Paris. Our hand-painted painting Dance in the City is made in oil on canvas, in eight sizes from 50 x 100 to 100 x 200 cm.<\/p>\n

\nThe dancing couple stands on a narrow upright canvas at almost life size. The woman, in a pale satin gown with a long train and long gloves, is turned away from us with her head inclined towards her shoulder; her partner wears black evening dress. Behind them are palm fronds and greenery. Everything gathers around the light on the silk, and that light carries the whole work.<\/p>\n

\nOur version is not a print. In this subject the difference is easy to see: the pale satin is made of long, soft strokes of oil colour, laid side by side with a brush, which change tone according to where the light falls. 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 narrow upright format is made for the wall between two windows, beside a door, or in a hallway, where a wider picture will not fit. For a smaller wall 60 x 120 cm is enough; for a tall room we recommend 80 x 160 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 hand-painted painting Dance in the City arrives ready to hang, stretched on a wooden frame.<\/p>\n
