Guy-Patrice Dauberville, Michel Dauberville, Renoir. Catalogue raisonné des tableaux, pastels, dessins et aquarelles, vol. 5: 1911-1919 & Ier supplément, Paris 2014, p. 148, cat. no. 3872 (fig.). Bernheim-Jeune/Albert André, L"Atelier de Renoir, Paris 1931, t. II, plate 202, no. 646 (fig.). “When Renoir finally settled there, the estate "Les Collettes" with its bright house surrounded by greenery, the large olive trees with their gnarled and cracked trunks that seemed to be made of gray stone, and the numerous orange trees, some covered with fruit, others still in bloom, an abundance that formed a fragrant forest in spring, offered a soothing atmosphere. Eventually, the multitude of shapes and colors of the plants that grew everywhere enlivened the garden, in which Renoir wanted nature to retain its freedom." Georges Rivière (1855-1943), art critic, artist and a close friend of Renoir, in: Renoir et ses amis, Paris 1921, p. 250.
