Mademoiselle V. . . in the Costume of an Espada. Artist: Édouard Manet (French, Paris 1832-1883 Paris). Dimensions: 65 x 50 1/4 in. (165.1 x 127.6 cm). Date: 1862.
Manet depicted model Victorine Meurent (1844-1928) in the guise of a male espada, or matador, borrowing her pose from a Renaissance print. Victorine's shoes are unsuitable for bullfighting, and the pink cape that she flourishes is the wrong hue, but she carries off her role with panache. The backdrop reproduces a scene from Goya's Tauromaquia series, celebrating the feats of bullfighters. When this painting was exhibited at the infamous Salon des Refusés of 1863, a commentator noted, "Manet loves Spain, and his favorite master seems to be Goya, whose vivid and contrasting hues, whose free and fiery touch he imitates.".
