Outstanding Photographic reproduction of his painting.I believe Manet would approve
I don't know whether it has been confirmed but much of Manet's work could have been done with help from photographs. This has been confirmed about Edgar Degas, one of his contemporaries.
Nice work with the model and lighting.
Whether or not Manet used photography is a matter of debate in the art world. None of his photographs exist if he did. But Manet did something very unusual in several pieces, including Olympia. Manet used frontal lighting, a technique introduced with photography. It creates an intimacy with the subject, darkening the background and pushing shadows to the edges. We are very used to the perspective, but then within the art world it was absolutely unique to Manet. That level of intimacy, including the model staring towards the onlooker, caused quite a scandal. I believe the French “establishment” artists labeled the beautiful piece as indecent. They refused to allow it shown at the official Salon.
Great shot! Nicely lit and beautiful model; great legs and nice shoes.

Great image!!!
Nice lighting,lovely young lady.
I would suggest to shoot this type of image with a slightly warmer and softer light and your model barefooted.
Beautifully done. Thanks.
