Modern portrait, artist's eye and years 1868 -1874
Through black hats, violets, fan and veil, Manet paints Berthe Morisot as a singular model and artistic interlocutor, never as a simple worldly figure.
Édouard Manet met Berthe Morisot in 1868 at the Louvre, where she worked with her sister Edma. Already a trained and determined painter, Morisot soon became a central figure in his circle. Between 1868 and the mid-1870s, Manet represented her in a series of portraits which were among his most intense images. Their relationship was family, friendly and artistic: Morisot married Eugène Manet, brother of Édouard, in 1874, and participated that same year in the first impressionist exhibition. In Manet's portraits, she appeared under changing identities. In Manet's portraits, she appeared under changing identities. The black hat and mourning clothes from the Bouquet of Violets concentrate the face between light and shadow. The fan, the veil or the pink shoe introduce accessories, movements and social distances, but the look retains an independent force. Manet works quickly, sometimes leaving visible the touch, the background or the border of a garment. Black is not an absence of color: it is constructed by browns, blues, grays and reflections which make the fabric come alive. These paintings also reveal a dialogue between two artists. Morisot looks at Manet as much as he looks at her, and his presence calls into question the agreed categories of female model. At the same time, she will pursue a major impressionist work, based on light, modern life and a free touch. A faithful reproduction must preserve the tension of the gaze, the richness of the blacks and the contrast between precise face and more spontaneous surface. The selection "Berthe Morisot at Édouard Manet" notably compares Berthe Morisot with the black hat - Édouard Manet and Berthe Morisot with the fan - Édouard Manet. His reading favors light.
In Manet's portraits, Berthe Morisot is never passive: her gaze passes through the costume, the accessory and the touch to assert an artistic presence.
