Portrait of Julie Manet
By Pierre-Auguste Renoir, 1894Known for Model, author of ‘Growing up with the Impressionists’, Julie Manet – the Beauty of Impressionism – was the daughter of the wealthy, well-connected painter Berthe Morisot and Eugène Manet, the brother of the famous impressionist painter Édouard Manet.
Julie had a beautiful upbringing, throughout her life she posed frequently for her mother and other Impressionist artists, including Renoir and her uncle Édouard. Surrounded by great artists, even after the untimely death of her parents when she became an orphan at the age of 16, she did not step out of the scene and continued posing for the great Pierre-Auguste Renoir, amongst others.
Julie began writing her memoirs when she was 10 years old, and her diary were published in 1987 under the title ‘Growing Up with the Impressionists: The Diary of Julie Manet’. Her work reveals fascinating stories about her family, as well as about other prominent artists including Alfred Sisley, Edgar Degas and Claude Monet.
