Virginie Journiac, expert in 19th and 20th century paintings: "Le dernier Renoir, les années azuréennes", published by Editions de Nicéphore, 2013.
In the twilight of his life, Pierre-Auguste Renoir chose to settle on the Côte d'Azur for the beauty of its landscapes and its healthy climate.
It is these years on the Côte d'Azur that this book proposes to bring back to life, based on an unpublished collection of correspondence, albums, etc., which for a long time remained in the possession of his heirs and is now in the United States. All of this is completed by the Renoir Museum archives and the most up-to-date bibliographical references.
