"Woman with a Parrot" is an oil painting by the French artist Édouard Manet, completed in 1866. The work is notable for its departure from traditional portraiture and its embrace of modernity, a characteristic that defines much of Manet's oeuvre. The painting depicts a young woman reclining on a bed, turned towards the viewer, with a parrot perched on her outstretched hand. The subject's direct gaze and the inclusion of the exotic bird were both elements that challenged the conventional representations of women in art at the time.

The painting's composition, with its loose brushwork and the play of light and shadow, reflects Manet's interest in the works of the Old Masters, as well as his adaptation of their techniques to contemporary subject matter. The use of a parrot, often a symbol of vanity or the exotic, adds a layer of complexity to the portrait, inviting various interpretations regarding the relationship between the woman and the bird, and perhaps commenting on the nature of communication and miscommunication.

"Woman with a Parrot" was exhibited at the Paris Salon of 1866, where it received mixed reviews from critics. While some praised Manet's skill and modern approach, others criticized the work for what they perceived as its lack of finish and its unconventional portrayal of the female figure. The painting is now considered an important work in Manet's career, as it illustrates the transition between his earlier, more controversial pieces, such as "Olympia" (1863), and his later, widely accepted works.

Today, "Woman with a Parrot" is held in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, where it continues to be studied and admired for its bold style and its significant role in the development of modern art. The painting remains a testament to Manet's innovative spirit and his influence on the generations of artists that followed.
