My deepest congratulations to the Art Historian Griselda Pollock on her lecture on one of my favourite paintings by Édouard Manet which I had the immense fortune of seeing at The Courtauld Gallery. 'A Bar at the Folies-Bergère"' is undoubtedly one of the jewels in their unique collection.
It is as enigmatic and ambiguous as it is thought-provoking, and Dr Pollock couldn't have described the picture and the era in which it was painted in a more interesting, gripping way. Thank you HENI Talks !!!
Thanks so much for your kind comment, Mia. Pollock is an illuminating voice in the field and we were so pleased to work with her. Glad you enjoyed it!
@@HENITalks , what a pleasure it is to watch this great Video again today, on Manet's birth anniversary. Thank you and Professor Pollock once more !
Art historian = brilliant new insight into familiar painting.
Your's is my favorite analysis of this painting so far! Thank you!
I was fortunate enough to see this work when the Courtauld Collection came to Toronto some 20 years ago. I had little knowledge of it before I got there and had no expectations. I spent about an hour standing before it, absolutely transfixed. This alienated and disaffected young woman does indeed tell us of the emptiness and superficiality of modern consumerist society. Thank you for the brilliant analysis.
Very interesting and beautifully presented!
The man and the second woman(the barmaid) are not reflections.
This is a picture of all of us when we were doing a job we did not much like. The look on the face is one of sticking it out to closing time.
Great presentation! I just found HENI Talks. I would comment that to me it seams the bar maid reflection shows what she is thinking. She seamed immersed in her own memories; completely removed from the present time. Her body is there, but her mind is not. Her distant, disconnected and absent regard suggests that she is in a
world of her own. The more sensitive can even be cognizant of the feelings the artist wants to share with who can or want to stop for a few moments; be receptive and willing to pay attention. How many of us can identify with this feeling? How many times many of us have been is this situation? Brilliant!
Thanks HENI TALKS.
Lovely reading of the scene, thanks for sharing your thoughts.

@@HENITalks Thanks. I subscribed immediately!
Believe or not but my mom look exactly like the women on the painting. When I first saw the painting I was so shocked by the resemblance. I sent a picture to my mom and she was absolutely shocked by the resemblance too. It's like this women reborned in my mother body haha. So strange!
How funny! The barmaid was called Suzon - you can read more about her, the bar and Manet's process of making the picture in the Courtauld's informative entry on the painting: courtauld.ac.uk/gallery/collection/impressionism-post-impressionism/edouard-manet-a-bar-at-the-folies-bergere
Super video.
Very interesting!!!
Fantastic
