Courses à Longchamp

ID: #1878 | Impressionnisme | Personnes

Date: 19th century
Medium: oil on canvas
Location: The Art Institute of Chicago, IL, USA

Le tableau représente une scène de course hippique avec des cavaliers sur des chevaux s'élançant vers le public. Le public est rassemblé le long de la balustrade et sur la tribune de droite, sur un fond de verdure et un vaste ciel bleuâtre. La scène dans son ensemble respire le dynamisme et le mouvement, le style artistique passant de représentations plus détaillées des personnes à des représentations plus expressives des chevaux et de la nature.

Édouard Manet (1832-1883). French Impressionist painter. He perhaps had the misfortune of starting at a time when the pendulum of history was deviating from traditional academic painting and Impressionism: for his generational peers, he was too progressive and for young painters, he was too traditional. Manet had an innovative spirit that, during his study of old masters (such as Diego Velázquez), he complemented with an excellent painting technique. From the Impressionists, he took a penchant for displaying reality using long expressive brush strokes, studying objects in the open air, and concentrating on working with light and colour. Unlike the Impressionists, however, he did not give up black colours, contours and classical composition. In fact, he did not even want to be associated with the Impressionists – he wanted his paintings to be included independently in Salon exhibitions and avoided the label of Impressionism.
