Abstract The paper analyzes the background of the artist Edouard Manet and discusses his life and specifically two of his artworks, "Boy with Cherries," a disturbing portrait of a young boy charged with cleaning the palettes and brushes in his studio and "Music in the Tuileries" (also known as "Concert at the Tuileries").
From the Paper "This is one of Manet's first well-known works. He painted it in 1860 into 1861, and it illustrates a group of concertgoers listening to an outdoor concert in the Tuileries Gardens in Paris. Manet loved to paint people enjoying their leisure time, and this painting epitomizes that time. This oil on canvas painting seemed to be unfinished to many people who viewed it in 1861, and it help start the public derision of Manet's works that lasted for some time."
