Fishing. Artist: Édouard Manet (French, Paris 1832-1883 Paris). Dimensions: 30 1/4 x 48 1/2 in. (76.8 x 123.2 cm). Date: ca. 1862-63.Patterned after elements in landscapes by Peter Paul Rubens, the present painting gives currency to Delacroix's recommendation to Manet: "Look at Rubens, draw inspiration from Rubens, copy Rubens. Rubens was God." Manet and his future wife, Suzanne Leenhoff, are the couple at lower right dressed in seventeenth-century costume and posed like Rubens and his wife in the Flemish painter's <i>Park of the Château de Steen</i> (Kunsthistorisches Museum, Vienna). As Manet had concealed his relationship with Suzanne from his father, who died in September 1862, it is likely that <i>Fishing</i>--a variation on a wedding portrait--was made between then and their marriage in October 1863. Museum: Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York, USA.
