Offers a close study of three key works from the 1860s by French painter Edouard Manet (1832-1883): La Musique aux Tuileries, Olympia, and L'Execution de Maximilien. The auithor's "aim is to clarify Manet's intentions at three crucial periods, and consequently to define Manet's position as a precursor of later developments in art. In addition, his researches give him the opportunity to discuss the prevailing opinion on Manet as an artist, indifferent to everything beside pure painting." (dj) Uncommon.
