More about this artwork

Édouard Manet, a pivotal figure in the transition from Realism to Impressionism, captured the innocence and charm of childhood in his painting "Julie Manet at Fifteen Months." This delightful artwork features Julie Manet, the daughter of fellow artists Berthe Morisot and Eugène Manet. The painting is a tender portrayal of the young child, emphasizing her cherubic face with a soft yet discernible brushwork typical of Manet's style.In the painting, the viewer is met with the innocent gaze of Julie, whose bright eyes and puffy cheeks are rendered with a mixture of precision and spontaneity. The use of light and shadow on her face showcases Manet’s skill in capturing the delicate features of his subject. The background is loosely defined, a wash of cool blues and greys that contrast gently with the warmth of Julie’s reddish-blonde hair and rosy complexion. This focus on the subject with minimal background detail draws the viewer’s attention directly to Julie’s expression."Julie Manet at Fifteen Months" is not only a personal depiction of family but also an exemplary piece that reflects the emotional depth and artistic innovation of Manet’s work.

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.
