The artwork titled “Young Woman in the Garden” was created by Edouard Manet in 1882 in Paris, France. It is an oil painting on canvas, belonging to the Impressionism art movement and is classified as a genre painting. Currently, this artwork resides in a private collection.
The artwork depicts a young woman standing in a garden, characterized by soft, flowing brushstrokes and a light palette, which is indicative of the Impressionist style. The woman is portrayed wearing a blue dress and a straw hat adorned with a feather. The background is rendered in loose, rapid strokes, creating a sense of movement and a natural, almost dream-like ambiance. The blending of colors and the indistinct lines convey an atmosphere of calm and leisure, thus capturing a moment of stillness within the garden setting.
