Édouard Manet and Paris

Édouard Manet (1832-1883) depicted many scenes of the streets of Paris in his works.

The Rue Mosnier Decked with Flags depicts red, white, and blue pennants covering buildings on either side of the street; another painting of the same title features a one-legged man walking with crutches.

Again depicting the same street, but this time in a different context, is Rue Mosnier with Pavers, in which men repair the roadway while people and horses move past.

The Railway, widely known as The Gare Saint-Lazare, was painted in 1873.

Édouard Manet e l'Impressionismo

Édouard Manet (1832-1883) viene giustamente inserito nella genealogia dell'Impressionismo.

Egli, infatti, fu l'artefice di una pittura priva di forti variazioni chiaroscurali, e più sensibile al contrasto e alle armonie fra i colori piuttosto che alla definizione dei volumi: queste peculiarità, se da un lato furono accolte molto freddamente da molti, dall'altro giocarono un ruolo fondamentale nell'affermazione della pittura impressionista, animata da artisti come Monet, Pissarro, Renoir, Sisley, Cézanne, Bazille ed altri.
