Pierre Auguste Renoir - Portrait of Actress Jeanne Samari

Jeanne Samari was one of the leading actresses in the Comedy Francaise theater. She got roles from all the productions of Moliere. This means much more than the same movie stars of our time. The girl grew up in a theatrical setting, so for her there was no future other than a stage. Her first performance with her was when she was 14 years old. Around her there was a struggle, crowds of fans ran after her. French impressionists were among them.

This woman can be found in many paintings by the artist Renoir. In some of them there is no direct presence of it, you can see only hints, for example, in the work "Swing". Jeanne was an irresistible girl. Her two portraits, painted by Renoir, were completely different from her photographs. She went to them some kind of massive, not the same as the artist managed to convey. When Auguste first saw the actress, he immediately fell in love with her. He could express his feelings in his paintings, so the girl turned out so beautiful. He sensed it and thanks to this created a masterpiece.

The famous painting is “Portrait of the Actress Jeanne Samari”, which is located in Moscow at the A. Pushkin State Museum of Fine Arts. It shines with life, colors, emotions. It is difficult to take your eyes off the ruddy face of a beautiful woman with a red bang. Renoir writes Samari as the Beautiful Lady, to whom many people dedicated their poems and exploits.

The art of European culture is somewhat different from Russian art. The difference is justified by the difference between churches and attitudes towards the Virgin. If for the Orthodox Church it represents the cleansing principle of the world, then for the Catholic Church, she is the queen of heaven. That is why the paintings of European artists are cheerful, their faith in itself does not require suffering and mercy, in contrast to Orthodoxy. Drawing the line of the Virgin as queen, artists introduce the theme of worship before her. Which was directly reflected and proved in the portrait of Jeanne Samari.
