Gustave Courbet by Fabrice Masanes
Courbet, who influenced and advised the fledgling Impressionists, was an outstanding representative of a naturalistic realism that highlights the contradictions and inequities in society. His influence was enormous during his lifetime; he was offered the cross of the Legion of Honor in 1872 but he refused it.
Fabrice Masanes received his doctorate in art history and specializes in the 19th century art. He contributed to the Musee d'Orsay's catalog Courbet et la Commune. Masanes currently teaches at the University of Paris in Vincennes-Saint-Denis.
