The story

Eh, what if we painted the same scene at the same time? It was Monet's idea. And Renoir loved it. They choose the setting, La Grenouillere, Paris best Beach Club at the time. Boat rentals, swimming, flirting, drinking. Sunday afternoon. The place is crowded. People too busy doing nothing to care when they see two guys setting up their stuff, side by side, and get at it. Monet painted the landscape. Renoir painted the people. It was a fun Sunday. Both canvas are priceless today.
