This is a master piece of France impressionism painter,
Edouard Manet.
In the foreground, three characters are seated on the grass: a naked woman and two men dressed like dandies. This two men seem to be engaged in conversation, ignoring the woman. Manet's wife, Suzanne Leenhoff, and his favorite model, Victorine Meurent both modelled for the nude woman. I mean character has Meurent's face but the plumper Leenhoff's body. Therefore that woman in the painting is some kind of a completion that Monet pursued. In front of them, the clothes of the woman, a basket of fruit and a loaf of bread are displayed as in a still life. In the background, another woman is bathing in a small pond.
The impression is reinforced by the use of light, which casts almost no shadows. The style of the painting breaks with the academic traditions of the time. He did not try to hide the harsh touch of the brush. Indeed, the painting looks unfinished in some parts of the scenery.
I wholly disapproved of this picture, especially with the naked woman. Nowdays, however, I think better of it. There are no reason or excuses. May be it's because I grew a year older and became liberal than before kk.
