Eduard Manet (Arcturus Great Artists Series, 9)

This lavishly illustrated full-colour hardback explores the life and work of French modernist painter Eduard Manet. Manet was one of the first artists in the 19th century to paint modern life and everyday subjects, including the then scandalous Le dejeuner sur l'herbe. Recognized for his paintings of bars and other everyday meeting places, Manet marked the transition from realism to the looser, freer style that signaled the beginnings of modern art. Featuring timelines and information boxes, this addition to The Great Artists series provides a wonderful introduction to this influential modernist painter. ABOUT THE SERIES: The Great Artists series by Arcturus Publishing introduces some of the most significant artists in history, looking at their lives, techniques and inspirations, as well as presenting a selection of their best work.
