Edouard Manet was born on January 29, 1832. Although well educated, Manet did not do extremely well in academic categories such as math, science, and history. ... Manet disagreed with their styles, saying that art should reflect ideas and thoughts of the present rather than the past. Since he disagreed with Diderots theory that great art only reflected the costume of the past, Manet instead followed the advice of his friend Baudelaire; to depict contemporary realism, to be "le peintre de la vie moderne. ...
Manet started his career with a painting called The Absinthe Drinker/Philosopher (1858). ... Paintings like the Absinthe Drinker/Philosopher portray a darker part of Parisian life that Manet never really had to face. ... Manet put much emphasis on Salon acceptance. ...
Le Dejeuner sur l’herbe, however, did not bring Manet praise. ... However not everyone criticized Manet, for it was Le Dejeuner which set the stage for the beginning of Impressionism.
