At the Café, Manet, 1874
Men at café tables, in ink.
What
Édouard Manet's At the Café, a gillotage of 1874, a relief print made from his drawing; Cleveland Museum of Art, accession 2019.57.
Why
Manet drew the Paris café as a crowd of hats, coats and newspapers.
Notice
The lines are thick and fast, a waiter in an apron stands in the right foreground, and the tables run back in rows.
“The café as the painters of modern life saw it.”
