Renoir: Luncheon of the Boating Party - 4 Fold

3.9/5 ( ratings)

Scala are proud to introduce the new, informative and visually exciting 4-fold series that brings a fresh and unique perspective to illustrated publishing. With pages that fold out horizontally and vertically and an accessible small format, 4-folds accompany exhibitions, highlight collections, explore cities and delve into icons of art history - all at an affordable retail price. Renoir masterfully created Luncheon of the Boating Party's mood of enchantment by capturing the immediacy of a contemporary moment - nineteenth century leisure on the Seine and the universal appeal of human celebration. Moreover, he combined several of the traditional categories of painting: still life, landscape, portraiture and genre. The result is a timeless painting that captures the atmosphere of an idyllic place, where friends share the pleasures of food, wine and conversation. Scala's new 4-fold format is ideal for displaying and complementing this exquisite painting, showcasing archival photographs identifying the revelers, ex-rays of the painting, revealing little-known compositional changes, and complementary details and images that fold-out to bring this late nineteenth century icon to life.
