description: "Renoir painted light itself — dappled sun through leaves, the flush of skin, the shimmer of a Paris afternoon. His canvases made Impressionism warm, sensual, unapologetically pretty, carrying a line from Rubens forward into the modern age."

# bio (long form, separated for readability)
bio: |
  Born February 25, 1841, Renoir came up as one of the core French Impressionists, but where others chased structure or atmosphere, he chased beauty — specifically feminine beauty, rendered in soft strokes and glowing color. His work became the warmest corner of the movement, a bridge from Baroque masters like Rubens and Watteau into something new. He painted until his death on December 3, 1919, leaving three sons: actor Pierre, filmmaker Jean, and ceramic artist Claude. Jean would go on to become one of cinema's great directors; his son Claude, Renoir's grandson, followed him into film.
