From the Minneapolis Institute of Art record
Maillol's portrait of his friend, the painter Auguste Renoir contrasts with the majority of the sculptor's oeuvre. He is known primarily for his depiction of female nudes in a formalized manner, which references classical Greek sculpture, much like his Leda . The Head of Renoir , however, provides an intimate portrayal of the artist's friend. France, Europe
