Mademoiselle V… en costume d'espada

1862
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 810
Pour le Salon des refusés de 1863, Manet rassembla en un triptyque le Déjeuner sur l’herbe (Musée d’Orsay, Paris), le Jeune homme en costume de majo (aussi au Metropolitan) et cette toile. Un critique écrivit : « Monsieur Manet adore l’Espagne et son maître d’affection paraît être Francisco de Goya, dont il imite les tons vifs et heurtés. » Comme l’avaient constaté les spectateurs de l’époque, Manet a reproduit une scène de la série Tauromachie de Goya à l’arrière-plan de son tableau. L’artiste représente ici son modèle favori, Victorine Meurent, costumée comme si elle allait au bal masqué.
