Ink on paper framed. Featuring portrait of a girl. Signed and attr. Edouard Manet (French 1832-83) Signature on the lower right corner. 9.4 x 7.7 in. (24 x 19.5 cm). Edouard Manet was the most important and influential artist to have heeded poet Charles Baudelaire's call to artists to become painters of modern life. Manet had an upper-class upbringing, but also led a bohemian life, and was driven to scandalize the French Salon public with his disregard for academic conventions and his strikingly modern images of urban life. He has long been associated with the Impressionists; he was certainly an important influence on them and he learned much from them himself.
