Eugene Manet with his daughter at Bougival 1881

Berthe Morisot's "Eugene Manet with his daughter at Bougival" (1881) is a charming Impressionist portrait of her brother-in-law, the renowned artist Edgar Degas, and his daughter Julie, seated in a garden setting. Morisot's loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors capture the fleeting light and atmosphere of the outdoors, characteristic of the Impressionist movement. The intimate scene, set against a backdrop of lush greenery and blooming flowers, reflects the artist's fascination with everyday life and the beauty of domesticity. This work, now housed in the Musée Marmottan Monet in Paris, offers a glimpse into the close relationships within the circle of Impressionist artists.
