The vast residence where Auguste Renoir lived in until his death in 1919. Cagnes-sur-Mer 1962
The vast residence in Cagnes-sur-Mer where Auguste Renoir lived until his death in 1919, photographed in 1962. A sunlit, gravel courtyard sits before the two-story villa, which is constructed from rough-hewn stone. Wide steps lead up to a first-floor terrace defined by a distinctive balustrade with a honeycomb pattern. In the courtyard, a classical statue stands beside a large tree, its branches casting sharp shadows across the ground, evoking the high-contrast light of a warm, sunny day.
Artworks:
