L'uomo Renoir

Il figlio di Pierre-Auguste Renoir - Jean Renoir, offre un ritratto fisiognomico e caratteriale assai dettagliato del padre, delineandone anche le abitudini vestiarie e lo sguardo indice del suo carattere al contempo tenero ed ironico:

«Mio padre aveva qualcosa di un vecchio arabo e molto di un contadino francese, con la differenza che la sua pelle, sempre protetta dal sole per la necessità di tenere la tela fuori dai riflessi ingannatori, era rimasta chiara come quella di un adolescente. Quel che colpiva gli estranei che s’incontravano con lui per la prima volta erano gli occhi e le mani.

Gli occhi erano di un marrone chiaro, tendente al giallo; aveva una vista acutissima.

Spesso ci indicava all’orizzonte un rapace che sorvolava la valle della Cagnes, o una coccinella che si arrampicava lungo un filo d’erba nascosto fra gli altri fili d’erba.

Dante Gabriel Rossetti | Autumn Song, 1848

Know'st thou not at the fall of the leaf

How the heart feels a languid grief

⁠Laid on it for a covering,

⁠And how sleep seems a goodly thing

In autumn at the fall of the leaf?

And how the swift heat of the brain

Falters because it is in vain
