Manet: The Still-Life Paintings
October 2000–April 2001
This exhibition, curated by the late George Mauner, featured approximately forty paintings, as well as a small selection of watercolors and prints, that represented the entire range of Edouard Manet's (1832–1883) production in the genre he considered "the touchstone of painting." Many of the paintings had not been on public view for over half a century. Organized chronologically, the exhibition revealed stylistic shifts from the relatively traditional works of the 1860s; the experimental decade of the 1870s; and the mature final period until his death. Exhibition Itinerary: Musée d'Orsay, Paris (October 9, 2000–January 7, 2001) and Walters Art Museum, Baltimore (January 30–April 22, 2001). The exhibition is organized by the American Federation of Arts and the Réunion des Musées Nationaux/Musée d'Orsay, Paris. |
