Mademoiselle V. . . in costume di Espada

1862
On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 810
Al famigerato Salon des Refusés del 1863, Manet riunì in forma di trittico i suoi quadri Colazione sull’erba (Musée d’Orsay, Parigi), Giovane uomo in costume di majo (facente parte della collezione del Museo) e il quadro qui raffigurato. Uno scrittore osservò: “Manet ama la Spagna e il suo maestro prediletto sembra essere Goya, di cui imita le tonalità vivaci e contrastanti, la pennellata libera e ardita”. Come è stato da molti notato, per creare lo sfondo di questo quadro Manet ha riprodotto la scena della Tauromachia di Goya. L’artista ha raffigurato la sua modella preferita, Victorine Meurent, come se si fosse messa in posa col suo costume per un elegante ballo in maschera.
