Lunch at the Restaurant Fournaise, also known as The Rowers' Lunch, Déjeuner chez Fournaise, or Déjeuner au Restaurant Fournaise, is a 1875-1879 painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir. It portrays three people having lunch at the Maison Fournaise located on the Île des Impressionnistes in the River Seine at Chatou, west of Paris. A rower and a coxed four are portrayed outside the restaurant, boating on the river.[1]
