Unlike most of the Impressionists, Renoir (and Degas), is most interested in individuality - in its unity with nature, in a live conversation with other people, in random situations. He captures the subtle nuances of mood patterns, identifies emotional artistic nature and immediacy of the young character in the portraits and genre compositions Renoir seeks to emphasize the feeling of fullness of life. It attracts festive side of urban life - balls, dancing, walking with their dynamism and diversity of characters.
Modern type of feminine beauty Renoir claims and image nudes, achieving a rare elegance carnation (built on a combination of the basic golden tones and greenish-blue reflections), soft and flexible plastic in the interpretation of the naked body.
