Sex, Leisure, and Commodity

Nineteenth-century French paintings are often populated by images of sex,
leisure, and spectacle. These same themes structure much of the visual culture that we are exposed to on a daily basis through the internet, magazines, and newspapers, especially in advertisements. For this paper, choose a print or internet advertisement utilizing images of eroticism, leisure, entertainment or some combination of these to sell a product or service. Describe the visual properties of this image or images. Compare this image to Eduoard Manet’s Olympia, A Bar at the Folies-Bergere or both. What are the differences and similarities in the presentation of these themes between Manet’s paintings and the advertisements? How do Manet’s critiques of the commodification of sex and play shed light on the motives and goals of advertisers?
