Tracing Renoir's entire career, this book examines the different approaches the artist used in his various depictions of the subject-from his works that respond to Gustave Courbet, Édouard Manet, Edgar Degas, and Paul Cézanne, to his late, and still controversial, representations of bathers that inspired the next generation of artists. Leading scholars not only examine the various ways in which Renoir used the nude as a means of personal expression, but also analyze Renoir's art in terms of a modern feminist critique of the male gaze.

Offering the first-ever comprehensive study of Renoir's nudes, this beautifully illustrated study includes approximately 50 works, including paintings, pastels, drawings, and sculptures. The book also includes an interview with contemporary figurative painter Lisa Yuskavage, who examines Renoir's continuing influence and the historical significance of the female nude in art.
