This painting by Renoir is one of my very favorites. I especially like the lady and the little dog looking at her! Of course that lady became his wife!

Renoir is definitely one of my painters. I love the impressionists. They opened the closed windows of the dim lit atelié and let in the sunshine and all the wonderful colours of nature. My kind of art!
One of my very favorite paintings by Renoir
Thank you, this was such an informative, easy to watch video that really helps analyse Renoir's painting.
Beautiful. I really love this!
I just love this.. so enjoyable. I have a large giclee of this painting in my living room Thank you!
I love this painting!
I could watch 2-3 hours of this. Will you ever release a documentary on the Louvre?
Love this!!
NPR had a piece on a life-size, 3D creation of this painting. It was what got me interested in Renoir's work and Impressionism in general.
Muchas gracias Smarthistory.
I grew up with this picture hanging on our dining-room wall. Only today I decided to look up who did it, what it's about. It's very interesting. Thank you.

same here I lived with my Grandma and aunt when I was a kid and that picture was in the living room and it always stuck in my memories as an awesome scene and now I can see that awesome analysis by art connoisseurs .
If you love this painting read the historic novel Luncheon of the Boating Party by Susan Vreeland. It is meticulously researched, and Vreeland fills in a fictional story, putting flesh on the skeleton of historic facts about the creation of this painting. It is so well written I discovered ideas about this painting I'd never considered before.
love this video and this painting! It's so joyful and it seems like an easy snapshot but I guess achieving it wasn't easy at all. Anyway, I live in Italy and I've been to many museums here and in Europe but I gam sure this wonderful picture deserves a trip to America... who knows, I might see it in person one day,

The museum it is in, the Phillips Collection is wonderful and well worth the trip. We however, miss visiting Italy. We will return as soon as we can.

"Particular class" From what I remember the people on this painting range from working class to aristocracy. They are unified not by class but by love of art (or artists).
Was this painting originally this big in dimensions or did he paint it smaller at first?? 🤔🤔
Antonio Maggiolo looks like a young Claude Debussy.

Warm greetings How can I contact you fine folks? I am an art lover and would like to produce a few videos to introduce a number of paintings that are around me using the same video making techniques that you so beautifully produce. I would appreciate connecting me with the person who creates your videos.

Caillebotte has got to be one of the coolest names ever. This is super bougie, though. I don't know that I'd enjoy a "life is good" lifestyle... But then compared to some areas of the world, I already do. I guess this is my upper limit, lol.

My theory is we are now so accustomed to hearing loud voices on KZread, in movies, and on TV, that the quieter voices appropriate to museums, churches, and the other places we record now seem unfamiliar.
Thanks for another good video, especially at a time when Renoir is being protested as "sucking" outside at least one museum. It IS a marvelous painting, and I enjoyed your take on it. On the other hand, Renoir's contemporary critics do have a point about the relevance of the bourgeois content of Renoir's art, which only becomes more inbred over time. Renoir becomes a sort of "dead white male" poster boy, celebrating vapid women, and catering to the rich. Nevertheless, he was a fine painter in some of the best canvases, such as the Boating Party.

You guys are great, but at this point I need to go back and look at the classics. That's really where you excel. No one really cares about totem poles, or African art, or deformed jars or whatever.
