Questions about this Print

The size you set is the printed image, the part you see once the canvas is stretched. Beyond that size we add 1.2 in of blank canvas on every side, at no extra cost, so the stretcher bars have something to grip. A 14.5 × 21.7 in print therefore arrives as 16.9 × 24 in. Both numbers are shown in Your Selection above and change with the slider.

Yes. The slider covers every size up to 36.9 × 55.1 in, always in the proportions of the original. If you need something larger, or a size that has to fit a frame you already own, write to us with the title and the dimensions and we will tell you what is possible. Every print is made to order, so there is usually a way.

Because the original is an oil painting on canvas. We match the print medium to the original: oil paintings go on canvas, works on paper go on fine art paper. Our canvas is natural cotton, 400 g/m² Canvas, acid-free and pH neutral, and its woven texture gives the most natural impression of Manet's original oil painting. The finish is satin/gloss, which keeps the depth of the dark tones the way varnish does on a painting in a museum; a matte canvas looks dull and pale next to it. More about our print media.

Start with the original, which measures 61 × 90.5 cm. A print at or near that size reads the way the artist judged it. Printing smaller is easy; enlarging a small original changes its character. For the wall, above a sofa or a sideboard aim for two thirds to three quarters of the furniture width, and hang the center at eye level. Cut paper to size and tape it to the wall before you order. The original hangs in Phillips Collection, Washington, USA. Full size guide.

About the Painting

Edouard Manet hailed from a prosperous family and underwent traditional training in Paris from 1849 to 1857. During this period, he diligently copied the works of the Old Masters showcased at the Louvre while studying under the guidance of the esteemed history painter, Thomas Couture (1815-79).

Despite facing rejection at the Salon of 1859 for his initial significant piece, "The Absinthe Drinker," Manet's talent flourished. Two years later, his portrait of his parents, evidently influenced by Dutch painters of the 17th century like Frans Hals (1581-1666), and "The Spanish Singer" (1861), which received an honorable mention, were both accepted.

Subsequently, Manet delved into painting numerous subjects inspired by Spain, such as this particular artwork from 1862. His style, characterized by a dark color palette, figures against a flat background, varying shades of white interrupted by vibrant bursts of color, and the presence of studio lighting, remained consistent until the mid-1880s. The four central figures in the painting strike formal poses, meticulously depicting their arms, legs, and faces, in stark contrast to the more loosely rendered costumes and figures on the left and right.

Interestingly, Manet did not actually visit Spain until 1865, and following this visit, he surprisingly discontinued painting Spanish-themed subjects.
