In reply to the missed question (my mistake)....  The "Lunch on the Grass" painting by Manet was very avant garde.  What I enjoy about the painting most is that the naked lady is looking at you.  This really draws the viewer to analyze whether they would ever be caught naked in the park.  The closeness to the viewer was really captured with a simple contact of eyes.  I enjoy the connection to Napolean and where his tastes may or may not have made an artist viable or not.
