Julie herself became a painter and kept a valuable diary that documents the artistic life of Paris at the end of the 19th century.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"507\" data-end=\"989\">Julie began writing her diary in 1893 at the age of 15. The young girl moved within a circle of artists such as <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Pierre-Auguste Renoir<\/span><\/span>, <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Edgar Degas<\/span><\/span>, and <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">St\u00e9phane Mallarm\u00e9<\/span><\/span>. The latter became her guardian after the death of her mother. Berthe Morisot died in 1895 from pneumonia. Julie was deeply affected by the loss, and from that moment the tone of her diary changed\u2014it became a refuge where she could express her grief.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"991\" data-end=\"1241\">Julie\u2019s diary serves as a window into the artistic world of her time. It includes descriptions of studio visits, conversations with famous painters, reflections on art, literature, and music, as well as her personal emotions after her mother\u2019s death.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1243\" data-end=\"1457\">Julie recounts a visit to Renoir. She observes his studio with curiosity and describes the paintings in progress. She notes how gently the painter works, despite the pain that had already begun to affect his hands.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1459\" data-end=\"1613\">She often writes about Edgar Degas, a close family friend. She comments on his sometimes abrupt character, his irony, but also his brilliant intelligence.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1615\" data-end=\"1754\">The young girl also describes the Tuesday gatherings at Mallarm\u00e9\u2019s home, evoking the atmosphere and the discussions about poetry and music.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"1756\" data-end=\"2028\">It was Berthe Morisot who painted Julie most often, in works such as <em data-start=\"1825\" data-end=\"1843\">Julie au berceau<\/em> (1878) and <em data-start=\"1855\" data-end=\"1870\">Julie r\u00eavante<\/em>. Renoir painted her as a child, while \u00c9douard Manet portrayed her as a baby shortly after her birth. Degas created drawings and studies in which she appears.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2030\" data-end=\"2214\">Julie loved reading poetry, French classics, and sometimes works in English. Her taste for literature was strongly influenced by St\u00e9phane Mallarm\u00e9, who personally guided her education.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"2216\" data-end=\"2593\">After her marriage to <span class=\"hover:entity-accent entity-underline inline cursor-pointer align-baseline\"><span class=\"whitespace-normal\">Ernest Rouart<\/span><\/span>, also from an artistic background, she became known as Julie Manet Rouart. Although she did not pursue a public artistic career like her mother, she played an important role in preserving and promoting the work of Berthe Morisot.
