The extraordinary story behind Manet's portrait of his only pupil
Eva Gonzales, placed within the broader context of women painters
of the period Edouard Manet (1832-1883) only ever had one formal
pupil, Eva Gonzales (1849-1883). The daughter of a prominent
writer, she entered Manet's studio aged 19. He portrayed her the
year they met and exhibited the ambitious full-length portrait at
the Paris Salon of 1870, at which Gonzales also displayed her own
work, for the first time, to positive reviews. The first in a new
series of Discover titles, in which a single work of art in the
National Gallery's collection is reconsidered from a fresh
perspective, this book reveals the extraordinary story behind
Manet's portrait by examining it in the context of women's artistic
practice in nineteenth-century Paris, Gonzales's development as a
professional painter, and Manet's career in 1870. Combining new art
historical research with engaging essays on women artists and their
representation in visual culture, Discover Manet & Eva Gonzales
provides a richly illustrated, in-depth study of Manet's portrait
and offers a groundbreaking viewpoint on both artists. Published by
National Gallery Global/Distributed by Yale University Press
