Bouquet Of Roses, 1879. In the summer of 1879, the banker and diplomat Paul Berard invited Renoir to his country house in Normandy. During his visit, the artist painted portraits of Berard’s children and made several panel decorations, this one for a door in the library. While the bouquet’s orderly arrangement is traditional, the thick brushstrokes and lively colors reflect Renoir’s Impressionist technique.
