| 2023-05-08 202 The Steamboat, Seascsape with Porpoises (1868), Edouard Manet, Philadelphia Museum of Art |
| This broadly brushed painting is similar to two large canvasses Manet made as a result of his 1864 trip to Boulogne, but a watercolor from one of Manet's 1868 slketchbooks suggests a later dating for this picture. The modern steamboat is juxtaposed with a carefully rendered sailing ship and a group of dolphins, a motif dating back to ancient art. |
