Painting Information
Manet's final grand-scale canvas, much like his infamous work "The Lunch on the Grass" (1862-63) nearly two decades earlier, faced immense criticism. Unveiled at the Salon of 1882, it was scorned for its perceived flaw of omitting the customer, who is reflected in the mirror, from being positioned in front of the bar.
This masterful painting is replete with visual enigmas and a captivating narrative. The reflection of the girl appears at an unexpected angle, while the reflection of the customer creates a sense of unease, only finding coherence when the viewer supposes it to be their own reflection. The expansive mirror reveals a scene of a balcony where people delight in an acrobatic performance, as evidenced by the presence of feet at the top left. This leads one to infer that the bar is situated opposite the balcony, at the same level but perilously close to the edge, devoid of any railings.
The reflected image bursts with lights, smoke, and movement, creating a striking contrast with the melancholic and solitary bar girl. Her stillness aligns her more closely with the meticulously painted objects on the bar (including the English Bass beer) than with the bustling humanity behind her. One cannot help but notice the flowers, mirroring those adorning her corsage - a seemingly incongruous moment of innocent naturalism amidst the artificiality of the bustling city.
