The maid servants treated him as they were at the equal status and talked as peers in the wine-shop of Berra. He never picky about models, the standard was that “Not reflective skins” and “Do not whitewash like the upper-class ladies.”

But when he began to draw, his face immediately lit up and sometimes he could even hum sweet, melodious songs. Renoir was famous for drawing figures, and between the works, the most classic was the sweet, leisure atmosphere and plump, bright face and hands.
