Questions about this Print

The size you set is the printed image, the part you see once the canvas is stretched. Beyond that size we add 1.2 in of blank canvas on every side, at no extra cost, so the stretcher bars have something to grip. A 21.7 × 17.2 in print therefore arrives as 24 × 19.6 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 41.3 × 32.9 in, always in the proportions of the original. If you need something larger, or a size that has to fit a frame you already own, write to us with the title and the dimensions and we will tell you what is possible. Every print is made to order, so there is usually a way.

Because the original is an oil painting on canvas. We match the print medium to the original: oil paintings go on canvas, works on paper go on fine art paper. Our canvas is natural cotton, 400 g/m² Canvas, acid-free and pH neutral, and its woven texture gives the most natural impression of Renoir's original oil painting. The finish is satin/gloss, which keeps the depth of the dark tones the way varnish does on a painting in a museum; a matte canvas looks dull and pale next to it. More about our print media.

Start with the original, which measures 81.3 × 65.4 cm. A print at or near that size reads the way the artist judged it. Printing smaller is easy; enlarging a small original changes its character. For the wall, above a sofa or a sideboard aim for two thirds to three quarters of the furniture width, and hang the center at eye level. Cut paper to size and tape it to the wall before you order. The original hangs in Chrysler Museum of Art, Norfolk, USA. Full size guide.

About the Painting

Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s "The Daughters of Paul Durand-Ruel" (1882) is a quintessential example of his ability to meld human intimacy with the fleeting beauty of nature. Renoir invites us into a moment suspended in time, yet rich with the warmth of familial tenderness. Two young girls, daughters of the art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel, sit on a garden bench, bathed in dappled sunlight. Their white dresses shimmer with shades of pastel – not pure white, but a complex interplay of lavender, pinks, blues, and greens. These soft hues reflect Renoir's deft touch, his ability to capture light as it plays upon fabric, skin, and surroundings.

What is immediately striking is the harmony between the figures and their environment. The girls’ delicate features are rendered with a sensitivity that speaks to Renoir’s lifelong fascination with youth and innocence. The older sister, slightly more composed, sits upright, her wide-brimmed straw hat adding a burst of color to the composition, while her younger sister leans in slightly, her long hair cascading in a braid, her expression open and relaxed. Renoir’s treatment of the faces is soft, almost blurred, but the emotional resonance remains clear. They are not idealized, but real, tangible presences.

The background, full of lush foliage, is suggestive rather than descriptive. Renoir uses broad, loose brushstrokes to create an impression of leaves, branches, and dappled light without overburdening the canvas with unnecessary detail. The effect is that of a garden in perpetual bloom - a paradise of color and light, where the viewer can almost feel the gentle breeze and hear the rustle of leaves. Despite the complexity of the scene, there is a palpable sense of ease and naturalness.

This painting, though rooted in the tradition of portraiture, speaks to Renoir’s broader preoccupation with light and color. Every detail, from the lace on the girls' boots to the soft floral bouquet in the older sister's lap, is rendered with care, yet nothing is labored. The painting shimmers with life. It is, ultimately, an invitation into a world where nature and human emotion coexist in perfect, radiant harmony.
