  1. Edouard Manet 1832-1883 The greatest painter in France of the 1860s & 70s His career set the tone for the Impressionists

  2. “Manet’s paintings became the first Modernist ones by virtue of the frankness with which they declared the surfaces on which they were painted.” Clement Greenberg

  3. This photograph of Manet was taken circa 1875 by the famous photographer Félix Nadar.  In 1853, Nadar opened a Paris studio that became a meeting place for the many artists depicted in his superb portraits.  In 1874, the First Impressionist Exhibition was held in the Nadar studio at 35 Boulevard des Capucines. Edgar Degas made this drawing as a preparatory study for an etched portrait of Manet that was made in 1868. The two painters first met in the Louvre Art Museum in 1862 and became good friends. Over the years, Degas executed several drawings and paintings of both Manet and his wife.

(1844-1885) was Manet’s favorite model in the 1860s, posing for such important works as The Picnic and Olympia. She went to America in mysterious circumstances in the 1860s and then returned to France, serving again as Manet’s model in the early 1870s, e.g. in The Railway. She became a painter herself, exhibiting a self-portrait at the 1876 Salon when Manet’s submission was rejected, and in the 1879 Salon her entry was in the same room as Manet’s. (The Street Singer). She probably died an alcoholic, in poverty.

  18. Alexandre Cabanel. Birth of Venus, 1863

  19. The Birth of Venus The Birth of Venus was one of the great successes of the 1863 Salon, where it was bought by Napoleon III. Typical of Cabanel's virtuoso technique, this facile and disciplined painting is a perfect example of popular and official artistic taste of the period. In an eclectic spirit characteristic of the Second Empire, Cabanel combines references to Ingres with an 18th century style of painting. Here, however, the mythological theme is simply a pretext for the portrayal of a nude figure who, though idealized, is nonetheless depicted in a lascivious pose. Emile Zola denounced this ambiguity: "the goddess, drowned in a river of milk, resembles a delicious courtesan, not made of flesh and bone - that would be indecent - but of a sort of pink and white marzipan". Leaving this academic tradition far behind, Manet'sOlympia, painted with honesty and vigour, caused a major scandal.

  26. Manet. Christ Mocked by the Soldiers, 1865. Oil on canvas, 128x103 cm Here one can see how Manet emphasizes traditional aspects such as line, chairoscuro, and the solidity of form—but he is still entirely modern in his flatness and large swashes of color or paint.

  34. In October 28, 1863, Manet married Suzanne Leenhoff in Holland. Manet’s wife was Dutch, two years his senior, and an excellent musician. She had been employed by August Manet to give Edouard and his brother Eugène piano lessons. After a relationship lasting more than ten years, Manet finally married Suzanne after his father's death. Léon Koëlla was Suzanne’s son, born in 1852. His father was almost certainly Manet, but he was presented as Suzanne’s younger brother. Edouard Manet. Luncheon in the Studio. 1868.

  35. Edouard Manet. Mme. Manet at the Piano. 1868. Oil on canvas. Musée d'Orsay, Paris, France

  36. Edouard Manet. Claude Monet Painting on His Studio Boat.1874. Manet called Monet “the Raphael of Water.”

  37. Manet, in turn, would look to Monet. Though initially irritated that Monet’s seascapes exhibited in Paris at the Salon of 1865 were mistakenly identified as his own, Manet soon became an admirer of the younger artist, referring to him as the "Raphael of water." Manet began to paint outdoors after 1871 and incorporated fragmented brushwork into his technique. These characteristics point to his ongoing dialogue with Monet. Both artists were interested in the perpetual movement of the sea as well as in the piers, jetties, docks, and hotels of the coast and its seasonal residents.
