La Loge is a marvel of femininity in its variations of pink and flesh tones. There is an enchanting harmony between the gold and the silver, the blue-blacks and the whites. Roger Marx speaks of those amber tones “which, in Renoir’s pictures, give the skin a blond, velvet quality and the iridescence of mother-of-pearl”.
We feel in this picture a flutter of eyelashes, a sense of breathing, a certain tremulousness, an emotion brought to the surface, that puts before our eyes that gift for life and happiness possessed by Renoir.
The flowers in the hair and on the bodice, the white gloves, the opera glasses held with such distinction, would almost make us doubt that it was a professional model, Nini Lopez, who posed for this fine creature. The man leaning back and looking through his opera glasses at the gallery is Edmond Renoir, the painter’s brother.
In this same year, 1874, Renoir participated in the first Impressionist exhibition with six oils. Later when his companions boasted of the freedom that they had discovered in landscape painting, Renoir began to doubt himself. “Alas, I am a painter of figures”, he wrote to Claude Monet at the end of January 1884. Therein, however, lay his originality.
Renoir tried to sell La Loge for 500 francs, but was forced to accept 425 from the dealer, Pere Martin – the precise sum he needed to cover his rent and typical of the hand-to-mouth existence of the Impressionists at this time.
