Mother and Child, 1886. Creator: Pierre-Auguste Renoir (French, 1841-1919)
Mother and Child, 1886. In this idealization of motherhood and rural life, Renoir depicts his future wife, Aline Charigot, with their son Pierre. The pastel is a confection of bright colours: warm orange and yellow are contrasted with cool blues and greens, creating a chromatically exuberant image. Renoir took full advantage of pastels unique optical properties, in which minute, irregular particles diffusely reflect light, allowing for an unparalleled velvety brilliance that is perfectly suited to portray the youthful bloom of the woman and child

EDITORS COMMENTS
. In this enchanting masterpiece by Pierre-Auguste Renoir, we are transported to a serene countryside scene that encapsulates the essence of motherhood. The artist beautifully captures his future wife, Aline Charigot, cradling their son Pierre in her arms with tender affection. Renoir's use of pastels brings forth a symphony of vibrant colors that dance across the canvas. Warm oranges and yellows harmoniously blend with cool blues and greens, creating an explosion of chromatic exuberance. The delicate strokes and soft textures achieved through pastel techniques enhance the ethereal quality of this artwork.
