Edouard MANET was born in a wealthy family of magistrates on his father side and diplomats on his mother side. After having failed the entrance examination to the Naval College, he leaves France towards Rio in 1848 as a cadet on a training ship.
Back in France, his father authorizes him to devote himself to painting, towards which he had felt attracted since his childhood. He compels him to follow a solid formation at the School of Fine Arts in the Workshop of painter Thomas COUTURE, where he was to remain during six long years. Although he had suffered from Couture's method of teaching which required "ideal and impersonality", he will keep for him all his lifetime a certain respect.
"I paint what I see, and not what others like to see" Edouard MANET used to say to oppose to the academic doctrine, intending to assert his own subjectivity and the importance of the vision of the painter compared to the conventional rules.
