Edouard Manet
1832 (Paris) / 1883 (Paris)
A precursor of modernity, Edouard Manet was one of the first painters to challenge the academic mentality of the 19th century. A harbinger of a new art form (through composition and choice of subjects), the artist stood out above all for his pictorial touch that favored "impression" over line, a practice that would become the significant mark of Impressionist painters.
