"Such nonsense!" declared Dr Greysteel. "Whoever heard of cats doing anything useful!" "Except for staring at one in a supercilious manner," said Strange. "That has a sort of moral usefulness, I suppose, in making one feel uncomfortable and encouraging sober reflection upon one's imperfections."

Susanna Clarke, Jonathan Strange and Mr Norrell

Édouard Manet 1879

At the café

Manet, with his combination of naturalism and impressionism, was great at capturing subtle emotions like indifference and melancholy. I tell people if they can't decide if something is a Renoir or a Monet, it might be a Manet, his style shared similarities with both.

Their supercilious air;

Not their imperious aura of command,

Nor their cold, unblinking stare.

And that is because I would rather be

Loved, than justly feared.
