The Gust of Wind (Renoir)
- ... that The Gust of Wind is Renoir's attempt to paint air?
- Source: Source: Munro, Jane (2003). French Impresssionists. Cambridge University Press. pp. 2-3, 40-1. ISBN 9780521813266. OCLC 51848366. Quote: This painting was probably executed around 1872. The scene is thought to be near Saint-Cloud, or perhaps elsewhere in the Ile-de-France; however, as its title suggests, Renoir’s aim was less to record a recognizable tract of countryside than to register that most unpaintable of elements: air."

Approve, a well-done and well-sourced page. My only concern is that the image is too small and should be enlarged in order to highlight both the page topic and a good example of Renoir's unique style. Randy Kryn (talk) 03:55, 25 October 2024 (UTC)
