Manet / Degas, Metropolitan Museum of Art, September 24, 2023–January 7, 2024
This exhibition examines the close and sometimes tumultuous relationship between Édouard Manet and Edgar Degas. Born only two years apart, Manet and Degas were friends, rivals, and, at times, antagonists.
The exhibition contains more than 160 paintings and works on paper and is organized by The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, and the Musées d’Orsay and de l’Orangerie, Paris.
From the museum label: Following Degas's In a Café (The Absinthe Drinker), on view nearby, Manet evoked the same setting of the Nouvelle-Athènes and selected the same model, the actress Ellen Andrée, for his own café scene. Although centered on a woman alone with her drink, which in popular imagery of the time often implied moral indecency, her identity is ambiguous. Resting her head in hand, as she ignores her brandy-soaked plum and unlit cigarette, she gazes wistfully into the distance, conveying a sense of urban isolation similar to that evoked in Degas's painting.

From the museum label: Manet's attention to the natural effects of light and shadow at play in this work may indicate that it was painted en plein air. The lively brushwork, especially in the background, and the subject matter both suggest that he was likely looking at the work of younger painters, such as Monet and Renoir, while the abrupt cropping of the composition takes cues from Degas. Although the identities of the sitters have been disputed, they were probably the Italian artist Giuseppe De Nittis, a mutual friend of Manet and Degas, and his wife and child, with whom Manet stayed during the summer of 1870.

From the museum label: Both Manet and Degas seem to have been drawn to a striking self-portrait by the Italian Renaissance artist Filippino Lippi. On his second visit to Florence, in 1857, Manet made this and several other copies of paintings at the Uffizi Gallery that he worked from when he returned to Paris. Degas curiously overlaid his own features in this drawing modeled after the same portrait.
