The Plum by Manet
An 1878-9 oil on canvas painting, La Prune (The Plum), by Edouard Manet (1832-83), the French modernist painter. Named after the dessert the girl is eating, this work shows a working woman, perhaps a shop assistant, lost in thought in a café. (National Gallery of Art, Washington, U.S.A.)
