Renoir's La Balancoire (1876)








Renoir's swing from his 1876 painting, La Balancoire, which is located in the gardens of the Musee de Montmartre. This is a lovely hidden garden not far from all the attractions in Montmartre. It is easy to visualise the images of yesteryear as you sit in this peaceful garden, with the towers of Sacre Coeur in the background.
