The French Impressionist Auguste Renoir (1841-1919) was a self-confessed fan of Wagner. So he traveled 130 years before his "Maestro" to Palermo, where he was able to portray the composer shortly after the completion of the Parsifal. Only half an hour granted him his idol, to produce the sketches. Thereafter, Renoir wrote, amused Wagner stated that he would resemble a protestant priest. For art critic this also shows the relaxed atmosphere during the meeting.
