His clear contours, flat color planes, and bold brushstrokes set him apart from the academic paintings of the time. Manet's innovativeness was also demonstrated by his choice of subjects, not historical or mythological, but scenes and people from contemporary life, and his attempt to depict reality as it is. At the same time, he also drew inspiration from the works of past masters and reflected them in his own work. While conscious of tradition, he pioneered a new style of painting that depicted the reality of his own time.
