A pensive woman rests her chin beside a glass of plum brandy

A young woman in a pale pink jacket sits at a marble-topped cafe table, her chin resting on one hand and a lit cigarette held between two fingers of the other. A small stemmed glass holding a plum in brandy sits before her. She wears a black hat trimmed with cream feathers and looks off to the side; behind her is a red banquette and a gold-framed mirrored panel with a green patterned reflection.

Édouard Manet (1832–1883) was the painter around whom modern French art turned. Trained under Couture and steeped in Velázquez and Goya, he scandalised the Salon with Le Déjeuner sur l'herbe and Olympia (1863), then painted the bars, railways, gardens and flower pieces of contemporary Paris with a flat, direct touch that the Impressionists adopted, though he never exhibited with them. His paintings are held by the Musée d'Orsay, the National Gallery in London and the Metropolitan Museum of Art.
