EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Edouard Manet's iconic masterpiece, "Dejeuner sur l Herbe" painted in 1863. The oil on canvas artwork measures an impressive 208x264 cm and is currently housed at the Musee d Orsay in Paris, France. The painting depicts a picturesque scene of a leisurely picnic set amidst a lush woodland glade. A group of elegantly dressed men are seated alongside two naked women, one of whom is Victorine Meurent, a well-known model for many Impressionist artists. This daring composition caused quite the scandal when it was first exhibited due to its unconventional portrayal of nudity. Manet skillfully combines elements of allegory with naturalistic details to create this thought-provoking piece. The vibrant colors and meticulous brushwork bring life to the fruits and bread spread out on the grassy lunch spot near a meandering stream. "Dejeuner sur l Herbe" has become an enduring symbol of the Impressionist movement, known for its rejection of traditional artistic conventions. It challenges societal norms by presenting nudity within a contemporary context while also celebrating nature's beauty. This print allows art enthusiasts to appreciate every intricate detail up close and relish in Manet's groundbreaking contribution to art history.
