Oil on canvas, 74.6 cm x 99.7 cm Monet wrote on September 25, 1869, I do have a dream, a painting tableau , the baths of La Grenouill re, for which I have made some bad sketches pochades , but it is only a dream. Pierre Auguste Renoir , who has just spent two months here, also wants to do this painting. Monet and Renoir, both desperately poor, were quite close at the time. The painting here and one in the London National Gallery London National Gallery Bathers at La Grenouillere , oil on canvas, 73 x 92 cm are probably the sketches mentioned by Monet in his letter. A bigger size painting, now lost but formerly in the Arnhold collection in Berlin , may well have been the tableau that he dreamed of. The broad, constructive brushstrokes here are clearly those of a sketch. For his exhibition pictures Monet usually sought a more delicate and carefully calibrated surface at this time. An almost identical composition of the same subject by Renoir is in the Nationalmuseum , Stockholm . The two friends were undoubtedly working side by side. La Grenouill re was a popular working class resort consisting of a spa, a boating establishment and a floating caf . Optimistically promoted as Trouville sur Seine , it was located on the Seine near Bougival , easily accessible by train from Paris and had just been favoured with a visit by Emperor Napoleon III with his wife and son.
