“Portrait of Henrietta Henriot” – Renoir’s canvas depicting the actress of the Odeon Theater, which he painted repeatedly.
On the canvas, the mobility of the blue and white background is noticeable, organically turning into a portrait. The figure of the actress, as it materializes, appearing from the air foam.
Renoir applies clear strokes, but they seem to dissolve in each other, creating the effect of transmitting both movement and stopping it.
In the guise of an actress, the artist saw the image of an elegant, delicate woman of the mid-18th century. The portrait is made in the classic style of French artists.
Work was demonstrated at the exhibition in 1877
Belongs to the National Gallery of Art, USA, Washington.
