Édouard Manet, A Bar at the Folies-Berg¨¨re

You want to describe a person in front of the hustle and bustle, but want to focus on depicting her lonely eyes. How to do?

The painter's answer is: put a mirror behind her.

Because "light is like a piece of water, both sides of the picture."

Picture of the central bar paternity, eye socket swelling, eyes blurred and lax. And behind her mirror, shines out of the full house, shining, golden and a heaven and earth.

Perseverance, and the world spinning folded into the painting, really wonderful pen.

More wonderful, is the heroine and bar counter (the upper right corner of the screen) line of sight of the wonderful dislocation:

Those who watched the mind and thought, and was watched, as in the dream. Two one and one dark, one far near, a virtual one real, a drunk and awake. So that the screen is sarcastic, dangerous, and let the viewer view no eyes, instantly distracted.

A painting, there are time and space dislocation, there are bright and dark echo, there are echoes against the background, there is this and he, in close proximity. Cut the clever, as "Wen Xin Diao Long" in the said: silence, the thinking of thousands of years; quiet Yan moving, depending on thousands of miles; chanting, between the sound of breathing beads, eyebrows before the volume of the wind The Its thinking of the matter!

Such a wise painter, a text, thinking, rational, God, so that the novelist ashamed.

Update: For questions about perspective, see Malcolm Park's "Ambiguity, and the Engagement of Spatial Illusion Within the Surface of Manet's Paintings." (Sydney: University of New South Wales, 2001).

The following is the perspective of the Park drawing deconstruction and the author according to Manet works of the image reduction map. Hope to help.
