Nella vita di Pierre-Auguste Renoir
Tutta la vita1870–1871

Incident on the Seine during the Commune

Founding the society of the future Impressionists

15 April – 15 May 1874
First Impressionist exhibition
Renoir took an active part in organizing the exhibition and showed a pastel and six paintings, among them "The Dancer" and "La Loge" (The Theater Box). It was at his suggestion that the catalogue carried the title of Monet's painting "Impression, Sunrise," which gave rise to the word "Impressionists."
