Edouard Manet's portrait transports us further into the past, offering glimpses into artistic expressions intertwined with fashion. The painter's brush strokes capture not only his subject's likeness but also their essence within their national costume. Venturing beyond Europe, Waldeck's original artwork takes us on an expedition through Mesoamerica.
