Description: FINE ART AUCTION Item description Portrait of a woman The offered artwork is a tempera and oil painting depicting a portrait of a young woman, signed Mary Cassatt, in the lower margin of the artwork. Cassatt's work combined the light color palette and loose brushwork of Impressionism with compositions influenced by Japanese art as well as by European Old Masters, and she worked in a variety of media throughout her career. This versatility helped to establish her professional success at a time when very few women were regarded as serious artists. Cassatt's art typically depicted domestic settings, the world to which she herself (as a respectable woman) was restricted, rather than the more public spaces that her male contemporaries were free to inhabit. Her material was occasionally dismissed as quintessentially "feminine," yet most critics realized that she brought considerable technical skill and psychological insight to her subject matter. Dimensions approx.: 29.5 x 19.8 cm, unframed Marked and stamped on verso from the previous collection. Acquired in UK. The condition of the artwork is very good, as pictured.

American-born Mary Cassatt traveled to France for her artistic training and remained there for most of her life and career. There she was recognized by contemporaries like Edgar Degas for her talent, and she became the only American artist to exhibit with the Impressionists in Paris. Her signature subjects were portraits of women and portrayals of mothers and children caught in everyday moments. In both her style and her insightful evocations of women's inner lives, she was a distinctly modern artist of the late-19th century. . …. Shipping We ship world-wide.
