Cathy FitzGerald invites you to discover new details in old masterpieces.

Each episode of Moving Pictures is devoted to a single artwork - and you're invited to look as well as listen, by following a link to a high-resolution image made by Google Arts & Culture. Zoom in and you can see the pores of the canvas, the sweep of individual brushstrokes, the shimmer of pointillist dots.

This episode takes us to Paris in the 1880s and a popular music hall, the Folies-Berg猫re. A barmaid stares out of the painting, surrounded by bottles of beer and champagne. Behind her, a fashionable crowd gossip and flirt.

It's easy to think we know her, given how often she pops up on biscuit tins, mouse-mats and mugs. But take a closer look.

Cathy FitzGerald and her guests discover the secrets and delights of 脡douard Manet's A Bar at the Folies-Berg猫re, now held in the collection of The Courtauld, London.
