BURTY, Philippe
1830-1890

An intimate friend of Bracquemond, Burty shared his wide-ranging interests and his passion for printmaking, acquiring a unique collection of Manet's prints which later passed to Degas. He commissioned a print from Manet for a deluxe album in 1868. Manet regarded the critic's essentially conservative views with some scepticism in later years but they remained good friends. In 1874 he was the first to realize the implications of the Impressionist Exhibition, about which he wrote a favorable review.
