Yeah, it's absolutely beautiful. There's about 3 or 4 rooms of them going all around, so the pic you posted is about a tenth of it, and he had cataracts removed so for half of them the colours are completely different. Some say due to the operation he might have been able to see UV light in one eye, which is crazy...


also check out this; renoir had severe arthritis for the last 25 years of his life, but had the brush strapped to him so he could continue painting..
