Courbet's 1851 "A Burial at Ornans" said to represent the death of the Republic in 1848 and start of Realistic movement in art. Art experts believe that in reality this is an excellent portrayal of a political commentary by Courbet's use of subtleties and the construction of geometric patterns within the painting. Courbet 's painting includes forty characters all appear flat with the men are on one side while the women are on another side. Experts believe that in this painting the coffin contains the death of the Republic in 1848 as seen in 1873 clothing from the Republic worn by two men in the painting.
