Pierre-Auguste Renoir \u2013 Mont Sainte-Victoire<\/h1>\n

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

\nMont Sainte-Victoire is an oil painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, made around 1888\u20131889. The original measures 53.0 x 64.1 cm, is catalogued as 1980.12.14 and hangs in the Yale University Art Gallery, New Haven. Our art reproduction Mont Sainte-Victoire is painted by hand in oil on canvas, in eight sizes from 70 x 60 to 150 x 120 cm.<\/p>\n

\nThe pale violet-grey mass of the mountain stands left of centre against a sky brushed in long diagonal strokes of blue and white. Below it the land falls away in low ridges of rose, blue and ochre, with a scatter of small buildings in the middle distance and one red roof catching the light. The foreground is a stand of olive and pine \u2013 blue-green, silver and dark green \u2013 over a field of dry ochre grass laid in with long horizontal strokes.<\/p>\n

\nIt is the same mountain Paul C\u00e9zanne painted. Renoir and C\u00e9zanne were working near Aix in these years, which is why the motif appears in both. The difference is in the handling: C\u00e9zanne builds the mountain from planes and blocks, Renoir from soft, small strokes, so that its mass almost dissolves into the air around it.<\/p>\n

\nOur version is not a print. Sky and grass are painted in long strokes all running one way, each of which stays separately visible, while the foliage is built from short crossing touches. A hand-painted painting keeps that difference in the way the paint sits, which printed paper cannot imitate.<\/p>\n

\nThe quiet blue-and-ochre subject settles well in a living room, a bedroom or a study, including on a wall that gets little light. For a smaller wall 80 x 65 cm is enough; above a larger piece of furniture we recommend 120 x 100 cm. We paint to order, in a different size on request. Before dispatch we send you a photograph of the finished canvas for your approval. Your art reproduction Mont Sainte-Victoire arrives ready to hang, with the canvas stretched on a wooden frame.<\/p>\n
