Les deux baigneuses (The Two Bathers), from the album L'estampe originale, album IX
Not on view
It was only late in his career that Pierre-Auguste Renoir took to printmaking, and only then at the urging of publishers who opened his eyes to the commercial potential of issuing etchings and lithographs in limited editions. André Marty commissioned The Two Bathers for the ninth volume of L'estampe originale (The Original Print), a quarterly compendium of prints by living artists sold by subscription.
