  3. Can you find a story? • Is there a story here? • What clues does the author give? • What might the story be? • What don’t you understand about the painting?

  5. ALLUSION Manet certainly alluded to other very famous paintings when he made this painting. Look at these two famous paintings and answer the following question. The Ingres and Titian are “classical” studies of beautiful women. How is “Olympia” different or the same?

  6. “La Grande Odalisque”- Ingres (French) – (1814)

  7. “Venus of Urbino” 1538 – Titian - Italian

  8. Manet was very influenced by Japanese art, to which the West had increased access. What influence can you imagine by looking at this woodblock?

  9. “Execution of Emperor Maximilian” – 1867

  10. Again, Manet was very influenced by previous painting • When you look at Goya’s famous “Third of May” (1803), what similarities and differences do you see?

  11. “Music in the Touilleres” (1862)

  12. “The Bar at the Folies-Bergeres” (1881)

  13. Practice this charge in your journal.You will be doing an in-class write for second quarter • What about this painting seems modern AND/or impressionistic? Consider composition, color, subject, perspective, painting style, etc. • I’ve provided some details of the painting so you can see pieces of it up close.
