Portrait of Monsieur Tillet 1871

"Portrait of Monsieur Tillet" is an oil painting created in 1871 by French artist Édouard Manet. The portrait depicts a man with a prominent mustache and goatee, dressed in a dark suit with a white collar. Manet's use of loose brushstrokes and bold color creates a sense of realism and immediacy. His style is characterized by the use of contemporary subjects and a rejection of traditional academic conventions. The painting, currently in a private collection, offers a glimpse into Manet's artistic vision and his exploration of modern life.
