Renoir and Love

Renoir and Love is the National Gallery’s major autumn exhibition and the most significant presentation of Pierre-Auguste Renoir’s work in the UK for two decades.

Focusing on the artist’s crucial years from the 1860s to the 1880s, the exhibition explores love, friendship, conversation, family life and sociability through some of Renoir’s most celebrated paintings. Major international loans include Bal au Moulin de la Galette from the Musée d’Orsay, shown in the UK for the first time.

The exhibition is organised in partnership with the Musée d’Orsay, Paris, and the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
