Artist a day!
ÉDOUARD MANET (1832-1883)
Édouard Manet was a French modernist painter. Manet explored Impressionism. He was one of the first 19th-century artists to paint everyday life and a focal figure in the shift from Realism to Impressionism.
1874 was chiefly notable for the progress of Manet's friendship with the young Impressionist artist Claude Monet, with whom he created on the banks of the Seine painting.
