Kollektion: Edouard Manet

Edouard Manet (1832–1883) was a pivotal figure in the transition from Realism to Impressionism.

Manet’s works challenged artistic conventions. His paintings, such as “Olympia” and “Luncheon on the Grass,” sparked controversy by portraying modern life candidly. His bold compositions, use of black, and unidealized figures influenced subsequent generations of artists.
