		The sharp admiration that Renoir devoted to Delacroix since 1872, has perhaps to do with this evolution which, after the poorly rewarding Impressionist exhibitions of 1874, 1876 and 1877 in which he took part, contributed to the great success that he gained at the Salon of 1879 with "Mrs Charpentier and her children" (1878).

		The thesis of this paper is that when Renoir in the last twenty odd years of his life became increasingly crippled as a result of severe arthritis and a stroke, he painted extraordinarily heavy young women in reaction to his suffering as a horribly thin person.
		Renoir's personal characteristics, present even before his illnesses, facilitated this denial in his later years: (1) his use of denial as a defense throughout his life; (2) his use of identification; (3) his passivity, particularly as manifested in his picturing himself as a cork floating along in a body of water.
		Renoir was influenced by previous artists among them Raphael, Rubens and Titian, and in turn influenced his post-Impressionist contemporaries who wanted to get away from the vagaries of the Impressionist style and embrace more solid subjects.
