I find it hilarious that you or anyone could so easily dismiss anything by Manet, let alone one of his most admired and universally recognized masterworks. When, and if, that genius stumbled or "lost it" he was still well above all but a few of the best artists in history. In my view, it's you who has lost it in looking at Manet, and have transferred that fault to Manet.

Sorry Chris.
Manet, as great as he was. lost it on this design. I think he was not
satisfied with this one, yet i love the overall feeling.

That was it's intention.


But it's only only a commonplace to note that " when certain cues are present
in a image they (i.e. all viewers) fill
in the missing information"

While Saul's response does not address the recognition of a "central organizing effect" --- which some viewers (like you, I, and Duve) find in 'The Bar at the Folies Bergere" , others (like Mando) apparently do not, and still others (like Saul and William) may find, but consider that issue to be highly subjective, and just one discourse among many that may be conducted
concerning any painting.

Someone's expectation that when certain cues are present in a image they fill in the missing information - consequently we see in the case of Manet's painting perspective where there is single organizing principle - that as
Mando suggests the painting was painted at different times with some
disregard
for what came before - similar to what he had done in Luncheon on the Grass

And does this lie in the habits of the viewer in the case of Manet

"Actually I thought what I had sent along supported Williams observation - by
demonstrating the fact that the space of the painting has no central

That each section or sector has its own logic doesn't prevent composition to have 'bridges' that create central organizing effect, without which painting
would fall apart.
