Vintage oil painting on canvas after Pierre Auguste Renoir, titled Dance in the City.

Dance in the City is a painting created by the French artist Pierre-Auguste Renoir. Completed in 1883, the artwork is currently housed in the collection of the Musée d'Orsay. The dancers depicted in the painting are Suzanne Valadon, a model and artist, and Paul Auguste Lhôte, a friend of Renoir.

This particular artwork, along with its companion pieces Dance in the Country and Dance at Bougival, was commissioned by the art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel.
