Portrait of Madame Brunet (painting (visual work); Édouard Manet (French, 1832 - 1883); about 1861/1863, reworked by 1...; J. Paul Getty Museum (Los Angeles, Los Angeles county, Calif...; 2011.53;)

Note: This portrait's bold brushwork, stark contrasts of light and dark, and frank presentation of the sitter reflect Manet's early passion for seventeenth-century Spanish painting. It is reported that Madame Brunet, the wife of a friend, rejected the painting on account of its perceived ugliness however, and the artist retained it in his studio. Although her identity as the subject of this painting remains uncertain, she is considered the most likely among several possibilities.
