  4. Manet's The Ragpicker

Manet's The Ragpicker

In this short video focused on Édouard Manet's The Ragpicker (c. 1865–1870), Chief Curator Emily Talbot shares some insight into the world of ragpickers, or chiffonniers, in 19th-century Paris, as well as Manet’s influences and related paintings. This large-scale painting was and remains a powerful depiction of those typically overlooked or underrepresented in art history.

Produced as part of the Museum's Encounters with the Collection video series.
