Pierre-Auguste Renoir Quotes

The pain passes, but the beauty remains Picture Quote #1

There isn’t a single person or landscape or subject which doesn’t possess some interest, although it may not be immediately apparent. When a painter discovers this hidden treasure, other people are immediately struck by its beauty Picture Quote #1

They tell you that a tree is only a combination of chemical elements. I prefer to believe that God created it, and that it is inhabited by a nymph Picture Quote #1

On the whole, the modern palette is the same as the one used by the artists of Pompeii... I mean it has not been enriched. The ancients used earths, ochres, and ivory-black - you can do anything with that palette Picture Quote #1

I’m still afflicted with the malady of research. I don’t like what I do, and I paint it out, and paint it out again. I hope this mania will come to an end... I’m like a child at school. The white page must always be evenly written and slap! bang! and there’s a blot! I’m still blotting and I’m forty years old Picture Quote #1

Religion is everywhere. It is in the mind, in the heart, in the love you put into what you do Picture Quote #1

To express himself well, the artist should be hidden... The trouble is that if an artist knows he has genius, he’s done for. The only salvation is to work like a labourer, and not have delusions of grandeur Picture Quote #1

Out-of-doors there is a greater variety of light than in the studio, where the light is always the same. But that is just the trouble; one is carried away by the light, and besides, one can’t see what one is doing Picture Quote #1

The so-called ‘discoveries’ of the Impressionists could not have been unknown to the old masters; and if they made no use of them, it was because all great artists have renounced the use of effects. And in simplifying nature, they made it all the greater Picture Quote #1

Nothing costs so little, goes so far, and accomplishes so much as a single act of merciful service Picture Quote #1
