Pierre-Auguste Renoir occasionally worked as an illustrator, and this image was created for an edition of Émile Zola's novel "L'Assommoir" (1877), a naturalist portrait of working-class life in Paris centered on a laundress and her family's struggle with poverty and alcoholism. The illustration shows Renoir applying his eye for everyday Parisian life to Zola's unsentimental social subject, depicting young working women on the city's outer boulevards. It offers a rare glimpse of Renoir working directly in service of literature rather than his usual independent easel painting.
Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.

It looks like something out of a museum shop, in the best possible way. Owning Workers' Daughters means more to me than generic art ever could, and Renoir is part of that.
It is a very good blanket that costs a bit more than it should. It captures Workers' Daughters well enough that I stopped looking for a better one. It survived a move across town in the original packaging. I would recommend it to a friend.
This is the best thing I have bought for the house all year. The brushwork in Workers' Daughters shows exactly why Renoir has the reputation.
I have bought a lot of art online and this is the first time it looked exactly like the listing. Everything that makes Workers’ Daughters special survived the reproduction. Thank you for making something this good.
This is exactly what I was looking for, and I looked for a long time. The color in Workers’ Daughters is what people mean when they talk about Renoir. Highly recommended if you are hesitating.
