During the Impressionist era, Édouard Manet rose to infamy as a result of his large-scale paintings "Olympia" and "Luncheon on the Grass." This special slide/lecture will show that Manet was much more than a provocateur; his scandalous works will be viewed alongside more modest and intimate paintings, such as his small-scale floral still life works. Although known by his peers as a "dandy" and man of his time, Manet was also a great student of art who looked to history while making timeless works of his own. In an effort to trace this process, the lecture will delve into Manet's deep stylistic debt to Velázquez and other Old Masters.
