One way that the industrial revolution's impact showed itself in the art of realists like Manet was through the depiction of everyday life and scenes of modern urban society. Realist artists sought to capture the realities of the rapidly changing world around them, including the rise of industrialization, urbanization, and the social and economic changes that came with it. Manet's paintings often featured ordinary people, city streets, and modern technology, reflecting the influence of the industrial revolution on society and culture.
