Young Shepherd Canvas Print

This masterpiece, originally named Alexandre Thurneyssen als Hirtenknabe, was created in 1911 by Auguste Renoir (1841-1919). The work is from the master's latter years when he lived on a farm near the French Mediterranean coast at Cagnes-sur-Mer. This a fine example of the warm sensuality for which Renoir was known. This painting is currently in the Museum of Art, Providence, Rhode Island.
