The Renoir Girls: A Hidden History of Art, War & Betrayal

Trama

“Immensely rewarding . . . Ostler transforms history’s grand sweep into intimate profile.” —The Washington Post Three sisters, the daughters of a prominent French Jewish family, all painted as children by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. In the turbulent years from the Belle Epoque to World War II, one would marry an English aristocrat and escape; one would become a collaborator with the Nazis; one would die in Auschwitz.
