About the piece
Painted around 1860, this striking portrait by Édouard Manet captures Madame Brunet in a moment of poised elegance. The work is notable for its rich, dark palette—characteristic of Manet's early Spanish-influenced period—contrasted against a loosely painted outdoor setting that suggests a park or garden.
