EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a moment frozen in time, depicting the famous painting "Homage to Manet" by William Orpen. The scene unfolds within the artist's home, where a group of esteemed individuals have gathered to hear the influential critic George Moore speak about the renowned painter Edouard Manet. The composition is rich with details that offer glimpses into the art world of early 20th century England. A prominent feature is a painting of Eva Gonzales on the wall, purchased by Sir Hugh Lane and serving as an homage to Manet himself. The figures in the photograph are distinguished personalities such as Philip Wilson Steer, Henry Tonks, D. S. McColl, and Sickert – all members of the New English Art Club. The atmosphere exudes intellectual curiosity and camaraderie as these artists and intellectuals engage in deep discussion about their shared passion for art. Each person's posture and expression reveal their individuality; from Sir Hugh Lane's hand resting on his head in contemplation to Sickert confidently adjusting his lapels. Through this photo print, we gain insight into Orpen's artistic circle and witness a pivotal moment when admiration for Manet brought together like-minded individuals who shaped British art history. It serves as a testament to Orpen's skill not only as an artist but also as a collector of talent within his own home. This image truly encapsulates both the spirit of collaboration among artists and their unwavering dedication to celebrating great masters like Manet.
