Edouard Manet
Edouard Manet was born on January 23, 1832 in Paris into the family of August Manet. His uncle, Edmond-Edouard Fournier, gave the boy his first lessons in drawing. In 1850 he entered the studio of Thomas Couture, where he studied for 6 years. After finishing his study he took a long travel through Europe. During his trip Manet finally found the answer to all his questionings and aspirations for light and truth in the paintings of Velasquez and Goya at the Louvre. Influenced by these masters and by the example of Courbet, a French realist painter, he gradually evolved a new technique which presented modern aspects by modern methods.
