EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the renowned painter Mary Cassatt immersed in her artistic study at the Louvre. Taken by Edgar Degas, another prominent figure of the Impressionist movement, this image showcases a moment frozen in time during Cassatt's visit to The Etruscan Gallery in 1879-80. Standing tall and elegant, Cassatt is seen engrossed in her observations, surrounded by ancient artifacts that serve as inspiration for her own artistry. The soft ground etching technique used by Degas adds depth and texture to the image, enhancing its visual impact. The photograph not only highlights Cassatt's dedication to her craft but also pays homage to female artists who defied societal norms during a time when women were often marginalized within the art world. Through this lens, we are reminded of both Cassatt's individual brilliance and her contribution to breaking barriers for future generations of female artists. Displayed at The Art Institute of Chicago, this remarkable piece was generously bequeathed by Mrs. Gordon Palmer. Its presence within the museum serves as a testament to its enduring value and significance within French art history. Bridgeman Images has expertly preserved this iconic moment through their meticulous reproduction techniques. This print invites viewers into an intimate glimpse of one artist's journey amidst the grandeur of a prestigious gallery space – an invitation that transcends time and continues to inspire art enthusiasts today.
