This painting provides a glimpse of the sophisticated Parisian world Edouard Manet loved. He was uncomfortable in the countryside, preferring instead the finery of the city. These elegant men and coquettish young women are attending a masked ball held each year during Lent.
"Imagine," ran a description in the newspaper Figaro, "the opera house packed to the rafters, the boxes furnished out with all the pretty showgirls of Paris.” If you could step into this scene, what do you think you might hear? Smell? What do you think is actually going on?http://1.usa.gov/1JJxUO4

Edouard Manet, sometimes called the first Modernist and the last Old Master, was born #onthisday in 1832 http://ow.ly/Hg4pt
Happy birthday to Édouard Manet. This master painter, featured in “Faces of Impressionism,” depicted more than just pretty faces in “The Balcony”: the models are his three friends--painter Berthe Morisot (left), painter Antoine Guillemet (center), and violinist Fanny Claus (right). Morisot herself referred to her somber, absorbed expression as “strange rather than ugly” and was amused by the description of her image by some visitors to the Salon of 1869 as a “femme fatale.”Musée d'Orsay (officiel)
Impressionist artist Edourad Manet's 'Corner of a Café-Concert' was originally the right half of a painting of the Brasserie de Reichshoffen, begun in about 1878 and cut in two by Manet before he completed it:http://bit.ly/1BDYfcK
