Painting Information
"Lunch in the Studio" stands as one of Manet's most enigmatic paintings. While a narrative is hinted at, it remains unclear, and the only indication of the studio in the title is the props placed on a chair.
The main focus lies on the boy, who appears to be preparing to leave and pays no attention to the other figures present. The lunch itself - the partially peeled lemon, reminiscent of Jean-Baptiste-Simeon Chardin (1699-1779) and 17th-century Dutch still-life paintings, the half-filled wine glass, and the gleaming coffee cup - captures the viewer's gaze and reflects a characteristic found in many of Manet's compositions. In the dimness on the left, a pot and an ivory-handled sword shine. A black cat washes itself, adding a touch of humor and establishing a visual connection with the boy's jacket, reminiscent of the dog in "The Balcony" (1868-69) - an animated element within an otherwise static scene.
Once again, Manet employs a palette predominantly composed of grays, blacks, and whites, punctuated by occasional splashes of color. Similar to "The Balcony," an interplay of triangles serves to unify the composition. Triangles emerge through the arrangement of the figures - the boy, woman, and weaponry - along with the bright patches of the man's hand, the boy's face, and the ivory handle. Additionally, a flattened triangle is formed by the handle, plant pot, and the length of the tablecloth, while an upward-tilting triangle is created by the pot, the handle, and the boy's face.
The influence of photography is evident in the figure cut off on the right, introducing a snapshot-like effect that contrasts with the otherwise static quality of the scene.
