Introduction to Music in the Tuileries Garden by Edouard Manet

Music in the Tuileries Garden is a captivating oil-on-canvas painting created by French artist Edouard Manet in 1862. This masterpiece, measuring 76.2 × 118.1 centimeters (30.0 × 46.5 in), is now part of the shared Lane Bequest, owned by both the National Gallery, London and the Hugh Lane Gallery, Dublin.

A Glimpse into Parisian Leisure

This painting showcases a lively gathering at weekly concerts held in the Tuileries gardens near the Louvre, although no musicians are depicted. Manet's brushwork reflects his admiration for Frans Hals and Diego Velázquez, while also foreshadowing Impressionism. The atmosphere imparts a sense of what the Tuileries gardens were like at the time, with iron chairs (newly installed in 1862) scattered throughout the scene.

Recognizable Figures and Influential Friends

Manet included several friends, artists, authors, and musicians in this work, such as his brother Eugène Manet, composer Jacques Offenbach, critic Théophile Gautier, author Charles Baudelaire, and painter Henri Fantin-Latour. The fair-haired child in the center is Léon Leenhoff, possibly Manet's son.

A Controversial Placement

When first exhibited in 1863, Music in the Tuileries Garden sparked debate among critics and scholars, with its ambiguities and unconventional placement at the Salon. The painting continues to intrigue art enthusiasts today, inviting interpretation and appreciation of Manet's unique style.
