Renoir prende allora per modelli i suoi familiari: la moglie, i figli Pierre, Jean e Claude, detto Coco, e anche Gabrielle Renard, la governante, che ritrae in diverse pose: Gabrielle con la rosa (1911, museo Jeu de Paume, Parigi), Donna nuda sdraiata (collezione Jean Walter-Paul Guillaume, 1906 e 1908).
Verso la fine della sua vita, Renoir si dedica maggiormente alla scultura, con l'aiuto di un giovane alunno di Maillot, Richard Guino (1890-1973).
