Artist's Description
In painting an unclothed woman gazing at the viewer in Luncheon on the Grass, Edouard Manet was rebelling against the tradition of nude figures modeled on historical, mythical, or biblical themes.
When Paris Salon of 1863 refused to accept the painting, Manet submitted it to the Paris Salon des Refuses. Even displayed in a Salon for rejected work, however, the painting sparked controversy and engendered public notoriety.
The woman in the painting is a combination of Madame Manet’s body and the face of Victorine Meurent, who later established herself as an artist in her own right, becoming a member of the Societe des Artistes.
Meurent is the inspiration for The Conversation in which the woman is an active participant.

About Don McCunn
I am a photographer/costumer raised in the San Francisco Bay Area. I hold a BS in theatre from the University of Texas at Austin and an MA in theatre from UCSB. For me photography is theatre at 1/60th of a second. It gives me particular pleasure to work with talented models to create original imagery inspired by fine art that has been enjoyed for centuries.
