Pierre Auguste Renoir | Landscapes

Renoir explored landscape painting throughout his career. Early on he was influenced by painters from the Barbizon school, a group of French artists who advocated naturalistic representation through direct study from nature.

Renoir followed this example by working outdoors, creating both studies as well as completed paintings in plein-air.

William Shakespeare | Il mio occhio si è fatto pittore / Mine eye hath played the painter

William Shakespeare, Sonetto 24

Il mio occhio si è fatto pittore e ha fissato

i tratti della tua bellezza nel quadro del mio cuore.

Maria Amaral - Spanish Figurative painter

Il mio corpo è la cornice in cui essa è racchiusa,

e, in prospettiva, è la migliore arte del pittore:

poiché attraverso il pittore devi vedere la sua abilità,

per scoprire dove giace la tua vera immagine dipinta,

che sempre è appesa nella fucina del mio petto,

le cui finestre sono i tuoi occhi.

Paul Serusier | Symbolist / Post-impressionist painter

Paul Sérusier, in full Louis-Paul-Henri Sérusier (born November 9, 1864, Paris-died October 6, 1927, Morlaix, France), French Post-Impressionist painter and theorist who was instrumental in the formation of the short-lived, but highly influential, late 19th-century art movement known as the Nabis.

The group was noted for its expressive use of colour and pattern in the mode of Paul Gauguin. Sérusier’s early paintings featuring the people and landscapes of Brittany are noteworthy for their muted, contemplative mood, which the artist achieved by using firm contours and blocks of unmodulated colour.
