About the piece
Painted in 1871, Édouard Manet’s 'The Croquet Party' depicts a group of figures engaged in a popular pastime at Boulogne-sur-Mer. The composition is characterized by Manet's signature loose, confident brushwork and a cool, airy palette of sea blues and grassy greens, perfectly capturing the relaxed atmosphere of a 19th-century summer afternoon.
