Maison Fournaise The Maison Fournaise is today a restaurant and museum located on Impressionist Island on the Seine in Chatou, west of Paris. In 1857, Alphonse Fournaise bought land in Chatou to open a boat rental, restaurant, and small hotel for the new tourist trade. The family restaurant was a favorite of Pierre-Auguste Renoir. He painted many scenes at the restaurant as well as several portraits of Fournaise family members and many landscapes of the surrounding area. In 1880, Renoir wrote to a friend: My painting detains me in Chatou. Be kind enough to come and have lunch with me. You wont regret your trip; this is the loveliest place in the surroundings of Paris. The Maison Fournaise museums collection is focused on the history of the house and the golden age of the banks of the Seine. It also holds exhibitions around contemporary artistic movements from the Impressionist era. Pierre-Auguste Renoir Pierre-Auguste Renoir, commonly known as Auguste Renoir, was a leading painter in the development of the Impressionist style. Renoirs paintings are notable for their vibrant light and saturated color, most often focusing on people in intimate and candid compositions. In characteristic Impressionist style, Renoir suggested the details of a scene through freely brushed touches of color, so that his figures softly fuse with their surroundings. At the age of 51, Renoir developed rheumatoid arthritis, which in his last twenty years of his life, severely limited his mobility. He developed progressive deformities in his hands and ankylosis of his right shoulder, requiring him to change his painting technique. Renoir remained positive and passionate about his art and did not let his condition affect his painting or diminish the beauty that he saw around him. In the advanced stages of his arthritis, he required an assistant to place his paintbrush in his hand. His hands were also wrapped with bandages to prevent skin irritation. Renoir applied a variety of effective coping strategies and used his ingenuity to come up with different ways to continue painting even as his arthritis weakened him. Renoir was a prolific artist who created several thousand paintings. The single most extensive collection of his works, about 181 paintings, is part of theBarnes Foundationin Philadelphia.
