The artist married a piano teacher who worked for his wealthy parents. Her son born out of wedlock may have been douard's his father's or another man s. For all its complexities Manet's family fueled his creativity. They were his most frequent models and supported him emotionally and financially. Manet: A Model Family is an innovative new exploration of the largely neglected story of the importance of Manet's family to his art. Presenting new research on works in which Manet depicted family members Manet: A Model Family shows how an understanding of the artist's family sheds crucial light on his artistic career. Manet's mother wife stepson and other relatives including his sister - in - law the painter Berthe Morisot are given long overdue recognition for their roles in Manet's life and work. Leading scholars present technical and archival analysis including redating Madame Auguste Manet an important newly conserved painting of Manet's mother. In an essay inspired by that canvas Pulitzer Prize winning critic Hilton Als reconsiders Manet's formative relationship with his mother and his bourgeois Parisian roots. With its original account of Manet's domestic relationships and personal life Manet: A Model Family humanizes the artist and his contributions to the birth of modernism.
