In 1913, at the encouragement of the famous art dealer Ambroise Vollard, he decided to create sculptures inspired by his paintings. sculptures inspired by his paintings. At the age of 72 and almost paralyzed by rheumatism, he enlisted the help of a talented young Catalan artist, Richard Guino. Following the master's instructions, Guino modeled mythological subjects, portraits and allegorical subjects. Among the latter, our two sculptures represent two Elements originally conceived as a pair: the blacksmith representing Fire and the washerwoman representing Water. The latter, also called "La Petite Laveuse", is similar to a model frequently painted by Renoir. The original plaster casts were made by Guino, commissioned by Ambroise Vollard in 1916, who produced a first series of ten bronzes. A second series of ten bronzes was produced after Renoir's death in 1919 by Renou and Poyet. Other versions were cast by the founders Susse Frères, Valsuani and Rudier, in different sizes with a few variations.
