La Loge

  Buy now from allposters.com1864: Courtauld Institute Galleries, London

For the affluent middle classes, Parisian life usually involved the regular attendance at theatrical entertainments where people went to see and be seen, which was possibly more important to them than the performance. This elegant and famous painting, one of Renoir's most delicate evocations of French society, reflects his delight in attractive women in privileged circumstances.
