Linda Nochlin’s study Realism contrasts this painter’s attempt to capture the demi-monde with the prudish moral commentary of William Holman Hunt and Augustus Egg. For 10 points each:
[10e] What artist painted a Black maid presenting flowers to a nude courtesan in Olympia?
ANSWER: Édouard Manet [reject “Monet”]
[10h] Olympia depicts two of Manet’s recurring models: a woman with an unknown surname who also posed for a portrait in a headtie, and a painter who sat nude for Luncheon on the Grass. Name either.
ANSWER: Laure OR Victorine-Louise Meurent [accept Laura in place of “Laure”]
[10m] Manet’s mentor Thomas Couture attacked his “moral sense” for a painting of a rag-picker posing with this liquid. Critics savaged an Edgar Degas painting of a sad woman sitting in a café with a glass of this liquid.
ANSWER: absinthe [accept l’Absinthe or The Absinthe Drinker or Le Buveur d’absinthe; prompt on alcohol]
