"La Brioche" (also known as "Still Life with Brioche") is an oil on canvas painting by the French artist Édouard Manet, created in 1870. This work is a fine example of Manet's contribution to the still life genre, a subject he explored less frequently than his famous depictions of social scenes and portraits. The painting measures 65 cm x 81 cm and is currently housed in the Musée d'Orsay in Paris, France.

The composition of "La Brioche" is deceptively simple, featuring a round, plump brioche placed centrally on a table, accompanied by a delicate arrangement of fruits, which include peaches and grapes, that are scattered around the bread. The painting is noted for its rich texture and the play of light and shadow, which gives the depicted food items a palpable presence and a sense of immediacy. Manet's brushwork is both precise and loose, capturing the flaky texture of the brioche and the softness of the fruit skins in a manner that is both realistic and impressionistic.

"La Brioche" is often discussed in the context of Manet's broader oeuvre as an example of his interest in the ordinary subjects of everyday life and his ability to elevate them through his artistry. The painting's seemingly mundane subject matter is transformed into a moment of quiet contemplation, inviting viewers to appreciate the beauty in the simplicity of the scene. The work also reflects Manet's fascination with light and its effects, a theme that would be further developed by the Impressionists, who considered him a forerunner and an inspiration.

Despite its straightforward subject, "La Brioche" is imbued with a sense of depth and complexity through Manet's masterful handling of color, form, and composition. The painting is a testament to Manet's skill in bridging the gap between traditional techniques and the emerging modernist sensibilities of his time, making it an important piece in the study of 19th-century French art.
