Luncheon Of The Boating Party

Another one of the most famous 19th-century paintings that Toplist would like to introduce to you is Luncheon Of The Boating Party By Pierre-Auguste Renoir. During the latter several decades of the nineteenth century, many painters painted images from the busy Parisian social scene. Pierre-Auguste Renoir, known for his ability to depict joyous social encounters among young and wealthy French people of the time, was one of the few artists who were able to capture it in a more moving way.

Luncheon of the Boating Party is a Renoir painting that depicts a group of his friends relaxing in the balmy noon atmosphere of the Maison Fournaise dining room, which was a popular locale in 1881 when the picture was painted. This painting uses the same brilliant color scheme as the majority of Renoir's works, which are known for depicting the bustling social life of several young French residents at the time.
