More about this artwork

This painting by Édouard Manet, titled "Strawberries," is a stunning example of still life art from the Impressionist period. The artwork features a close, detailed depiction of a basket filled with luscious, ripe strawberries. The strawberries themselves are painted with vibrant touches of red and ochre, highlighted with flecks of white to convey their juicy, glossy texture. The leaves peeking out among the strawberries are colored in various shades of green, suggesting freshness and vitality.Manet's brushwork is loose and expressive, typical of his style, which adds a sense of immediacy and casualness to the composition. The dark, roughly textured basket contrasts sharply with the bright redness of the strawberries, creating an eye-catching focal point. The background is subdued and neutral, providing a calm backdrop that enhances the vividness of the fruit. This painting not only showcases Manet’s skill in rendering everyday objects with extraordinary charm but also reflects the Impressionist interest in exploring effects of light and color.

Édouard Manet (1832–1883) was a French modernist painter and one of the first 19th century artists to paint modern life. His impressionist style is characterized by relatively small and thin brushstrokes that create emphasis on light depiction. Manet was one of the key artists in the transition from realism to impressionism, along with Claude Monet, Edgar Degas, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir. However, he resisted involvement in any one specific style of painting, and only presented his work to the Salon of Paris instead of impressionist exhibitions. His early masterworks, The Luncheon on the Grass and Olympia, created great controversy and served as a rallying point for other young painters.
