A Bar at the Folies-Bergere (1882) was the last major work by French painter Edouard Manet before he died. It depicts a scene in the Folies Bergere nightclub in Paris. The painting is filled with contemporaneous details specific to the Folies-Bergere. The distant pair of green feet in the upper left-hand corner belongs to a trapeze artist, who is performing above the restaurant's patrons. The beer which is depicted would have catered not to the tastes of Parisians, but to those of English tourists, suggesting a British clientele. Manet has signed his name on the label of the bottle at the bottom left, combining the centuries-old practice of self-promotion in art with something more modern, bordering on the product placement concept of the late twentieth century. But for all its specificity to time and place, it is worth noting that, should the background of this painting indeed be a reflection in a mirror on the wall behind the bar as suggested by some critics, the woman in the reflection would appear directly behind the image of the woman facing forward. Neither is the bottles reflected accurately or in like quantity for it to be a reflection. These details were criticized in the French press when the painting was shown. The assumption is faulty when one considers that the posture of the two women, however, are quite different and the presence of the man to whom the second woman speaks marks the depth of the subject area. Indeed many critics view the faults in the reflection to be fundamental to the painting as they show a double reality and meaning to the work.
