Abstract

Most of his works executed from 1883 to 1884 on are so marked by a new discipline that art historians have grouped them under the title the "Ingres" period, to signify their vague similarity with the technique of Ingres, or the "harsh," or "dry," period. Renoir's experiments with Impressionism were not wasted, however, because he retained a palette that was bursting with colors. Nevertheless, in paintings from this period, such as "The Umbrellas" (c. 1883) and "Bathers" (1884-87), Renoir emphasized volume, form, contours, and line rather than color and brushstrokes. His strong reaction against Impressionism continued until about 1890.
