Lampooned during his lifetime for his style as much as his subject
matter, French painter Edouard Manet (1832-1883) is now considered
a crucial figure in the history of art, bridging the transition
from Realism to Impressionism. Manet's work combined a painterly
technique with strikingly modern images of contemporary life,
centered on the urban Paris experience. He recorded the city's
parks, bars, and cabarets, often delighting in the frisson of
underground or provocative content. The Paris salon rejected his
Dejeuner sur l'herbe with its juxtaposition of fully dressed men
and a nude woman, while the steady gaze and unabashed pose of the
prostitute Olympia, a very modern reworking of Titian's Venus of
Urbino, caused a society scandal. This richly illustrated book
introduces Manet's work and his uniquely influential combination of
Realism, Impressionism, and reworked Old Masters that would become
paradigms of a brave new world for generations of modernists to
come.
