Spring. Edouard Manet. 1881. J. Paul Getty Museum. Los Angeles, California. Manet (1832-1883) was a French painter who provided an important bridge from Realism to Impressionism. Spring (Le Printemps) features actress Jeanne DeMarsy in a light floral dress holding a parasol and wearing a bonnet. She stands against a lush green background and blue sky, serving as a metaphor for spring. His rich, broad brushstrokes show his transition to a more impressionistic style.
