However by the mid-1880s, he had broken with the movement & applied a more disciplined, formal technique/approach to his portraits & figure paintings, particularly of women.

In 1864, contrary to the norm of the time Gleyre introduced his four students to painting outdoors in the forest of Fontainebleau.

In 1863 Γ‰douard Manet took a much bolder step: his painting Le DΓ©jeuner sur l’herbe (1863; Luncheon on the Grass) provoked quite a scandal because its subject and technique.

Manet’s daring made him quite the hero, in the eyes of the young artists, and came to become the leader of a new movement.

Impressionism attracted notoriety with the first Impressionist exposition of 1874, held independently of the official Salon.

Renoir and his companions stubbornly strove to produce light-suffused paintings from which black was excluded from their palettes.

Impressionism was naturally considered quite radical and frequently disparaged as it did not embrace the realism dictated by traditional aesthetic formulas.

Because of the then radical style of Impressionism the paintings were outright rejected by the juries of the Salon and difficult to sell.

Renoir, because of his fascination with the human figure, was distinctive among the others, who were more interested in landscape.

Renoir was fortunate to have a champion in publisher Georges Charpentier, who introduced him to a more comfortable clientele,

from whom he obtained commissions for portraits, most notably of women and children.

Renoir mastered the ability to convey his immediate visual impressions, and his paintings showed great vibrancy, luminosity and joy of life despite his financial woes.

Later Renoir rejected Impressionism and instead returned to a more classical style emphasizing volume, form, contours, & line rather than color & brushstroke.
