Monet and Renoir's La Grenouillère Reunited in London After 19 Years

For the first time in nineteen years, two renowned Impressionist masterpieces—Claude Monet's and Pierre-Auguste Renoir's La Grenouillère (1869)—are showcased together in a London gallery that remains unnamed. This exhibition acts as a precursor to the gallery's significant autumn show, Renoir and Love, scheduled from 3 October 2026 to 31 January 2027. The paintings, created nearly simultaneously from a similar perspective, encapsulate a crucial moment in the emergence of Impressionism. The display will be accessible until mid-September, after which Renoir's artwork will be integrated into the exhibition. The reunion was made possible by the loan of Renoir's piece from the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm. Monet and Renoir painted at La Grenouillère, a well-known spot on the Seine, during the summer of 1869.
