The Courtauld Gallery has been criticised for introducing a ‘woke’ new label on the Manet masterpiece A Bar at the Folies-Bergère. It warns viewers of the ‘unsettling’ presence of a man
As I mentioned when I read a book on Manet, this is my favorite Manet painting.
Also, I think “The unsettling presence of a man” is going to be my slug/lede on my resume and LinkedIn profile from now on.
