EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the late 19th century, where two prominent artists of their time, Mary Cassatt and Edgar Degas, find themselves in the enchanting Etruscan Gallery at the Louvre. The image captures a moment frozen in time as they immerse themselves in the beauty and history that surrounds them. Mary Cassatt, known for her remarkable talent as an American Impressionist painter, is seen deep in thought. Her gaze fixed on one of the ancient artifacts displayed before her. Perhaps she is drawing inspiration from these timeless pieces to incorporate into her own artistic endeavors. Edgar Degas stands beside her with an air of curiosity and intrigue. As a French artist renowned for his works depicting ballet dancers and everyday life scenes, he too finds solace within these hallowed walls. It's almost as if they have momentarily stepped out of their own era to seek refuge among relics from another time. The softground etching technique used to create this print adds depth and texture to every line captured by Cassatt's skilled hand. The delicate aquatint washes bring subtle shades of gray that mimic the play of light within the gallery itself. This print serves not only as a visual record but also as a testament to the enduring influence art has on those who create it. It reminds us that even great masters like Cassatt and Degas sought inspiration from those who came before them while leaving behind their own indelible mark on art history.
