Julie Manet

Julie Manet is a figure I find quietly extraordinary, and worth remembering as a witness to history. Born in Paris in 1878 and living until 1966, she was the daughter of Impressionist master Berthe Morisot, a painter herself, an art collector, an art model for the great painters around her, and crucially a diarist. Growing up at the very center of the art world and then documenting it for posterity makes her a living record of an era. I'm genuinely humbled that she didn't only make pictures but wrote down the times themselves. People who fill the gaps of history like that are rare and precious.
