Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Richard Guino: Mother and Child (Mère et enfant), Pierre-Auguste Renoir, Richard Guino, 1916; cast posthumously in 1927, Bronze, Renoir created this sculpture in 1916 to commemorate his wife, Aline Charigot Renoir, who had died the year before. The piece is based on a painting Renoir made decades in earlier, in 1886, showing Aline nursing the couple's first son. Because Renoir suffered from rheumatoid arthritis and had limited use of his hands, sculpture was an especially difficult medium for him. He enlisted the help of a young sculptor named Richard Guino, who worked with Renoir to create the piece you see here., Overall: 21 x 10 1/2 x 12 in. (53.3 x 26.7 x 30.5 cm).
