We just learned about The Calling of St. Matthew by Caravaggio.
Another famous work of art is a painting called A Bar at the Folies-Bergère by French painter Édouard Manet in 1882.
The painting is of a woman who is serving people at a bar, and she is standing in front of a mirror.
Many people talked about the reflection of people in the mirror, and that the reflection of the serving barmaid is off to the right instead of right behind her where it should be if the person is standing right in front of her.
There are green feet hanging down from the top left part of the painting, because in the restaurant there was someone on a trapeze above the restaurant as a performer.
Manet was a part of what was called the Realism movement, which meant his paintings looked like normal real people in real situations, and nothing was made up.
