Renoir au XXe siecle - Grand Palais

Today I went to see Renoir au XXe siècle, at the Grand Palais.

I enjoyed it, but wasn't knocked out, which was pretty much what I suspected because he's never been one of my favorites. 

I did enjoy the focus on a specific part of his career (the end) and some of the artists he influenced being hung alongside him (Picasso, Matisse, Bonnard). 

The audioguide was well done for once, but I need to remember that leaving at 16h30 to go to an expo is not such a good time, as it was quite crowded with the last wave of guided tours... earlier must be better.
