Tom - That's not a bad painting either.

I especially like the colours in the table-cloth and the dress of the woman. Also the highlighted area of her shoulder. There is a study for the Kroyer that was made in 1888, Renoir's 'Le Moulin de la Galette ' was made in in 1876.

The colours of the Kroyer are very bright. Do you think he could have made it this way without the work the Impressionists like Renoir and Monet made before that?

Thanks for showing the painting, didn't know it.

Greetings,
Peter
