"A Sunday afternoon in Montmartre, and the light falling through the trees."

History of the Work

Auguste Renoir painted Bal du moulin de la Galette in 1876, at a guinguette in Montmartre where people danced on Sundays. He set up his easel on site for several months and had his friends pose, rather than professional models.

What is striking is the treatment of light: the bright patches scattered across faces and clothes are the sun filtered through foliage, painted as such. Critics at the time saw them as mold spots. The work is preserved at the Musée d'Orsay, in Paris.

The Moulin de la Galette was a guinguette in Montmartre, Paris, where people danced on Sunday afternoons. Auguste Renoir painted his Bal du moulin de la Galette there in 1876, on site, using his friends as models. The painting is preserved at the Musée d'Orsay.

Beautiful images deserve beautiful paper

The paper is an uncoated matte 170 gsm. Its surface stays slightly fibrous, the ink sinks in, the light spreads across it. Colors keep their depth, as on the page of a book.

It is eco-friendly paper from sustainably managed forests, and printed as close to you as possible to shorten transport.

Hanging a piece is not the same as seeing it once. It stays there, you find it again in passing, and the day pauses for a second. It is a moment you give yourself, and offer to those who live with you.
