Le Coq au Berthe
9 x 12 in (22 x 30 cm)
Wax Crayon on Paper
Unframed
Édouard Manet’s 'A Bar at the Folies-Bergère' stands as his artistic final bow, painted in the twilight of 1882 and presented at the Paris Salon. In a playful homage, my creation reimagines the scene's central figure, replacing Manet’s introspective barmaid with a spirited, feathered rendition of Berthe Morisot. This drawing, with its cocksure subject, captures a similar moment of contemplation and a parallel enigma of reflections, yet in a more whimsical setting. Where Manet’s brushstrokes bridged Realism to Impressionism, my lines draw a new path—from the earnest to the eccentric. It's a testament to art’s dual nature: ever-evolving yet eternally grounded in its moment.
