The Railroad

Edourard Manet was born on January
23, 1832 in Paris. He was a painter and printmaker who in his own work
accomplished the transition from the
realism of Gustave Courbet to Impressionism.

Manet broke new ground in choosing subjects from events and appearances of
his own time and in stressing the definition of the painting as the
arrangement of paint areas on a canvas over and above its function as
representation.

Exhibited in 1863 at the Salon des Refusés his Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe
("Luncheon on the Grass") aroused the hostility of the critics and the
enthusiasm of a group of young painters who later formed the nucleus of the
Impressionists.

Manet's other notable works include Olympia (1863) and A Bar at the
Folies-Bergére (1882). Edouard Manet
