Mother and Children (also known as La Promenade) is an Impressionist painting by Pierre-Auguste Renoir that is housed in the Frick Collection.[1] Although the painting is most commonly known as Mother and Children, Renoir presented it with the title La Promenade in 1876.[2] The painting is displayed in an alcove under a set of stairs at the Frick.[3] Jill Bialosky wrote in her memoir History of a Suicide: My Sister's Unfinished Life that, when she and her mother visited the Frick, Mother and Children reminded her of what life was like with her mother and sister Kim before Kim died.[4]
