0 | Mary Cassatt: It is likely that her first exposure to French artists Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, Eugène Delacroix, Camille Corot, and Gustave Courbet was at the Paris World's Fair of 1855.Also in the exhibition were Edgar Degas and Camille Pissarro, both of whom were later her colleagues and mentors.Though her famil... | 2,311 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Part of her parents' concern may have been Cassatt's exposure to feminist ideas and the bohemian behavior of some of the male students.As such, Cassatt and her network of friends were lifelong advocates of equal rights for the sexes.Although about 20% of the students were female, most viewed art as a soci... | 2,745 |

0 | Mary Cassatt: After overcoming her father's objections, she moved to Paris in 1866, with her mother and family friends acting as chaperones.Since women could not yet attend the École des Beaux-Arts, Cassatt applied to study privately with masters from the school and was accepted to study with Jean-Léon Gérôme, a highly... | 3,747 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Cassatt augmented her artistic training with daily copying in the Louvre, obtaining the required permit, which was necessary to control the "copyists", usually low-paid women, who daily filled the museum to paint copies for sale.The museum also served as a social place for Frenchmen and American female st... | 4,316 |

0 | Mary Cassatt: Returning to the United States in the late summer of 1870—as the Franco-Prussian War was starting—Cassatt lived with her family in Altoona.Her father continued to resist her chosen vocation, and paid for her basic needs, but not her art supplies.Cassatt placed two of her paintings in a New York gallery an... | 6,049 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: She was also dismayed at the lack of paintings to study while staying at her summer residence.Cassatt even considered giving up art, as she was determined to make an independent living.She wrote in a letter of July 1871, "I have given up my studio & torn up my father's portrait, & have not touched a brush... | 6,353 |

0 | Mary Cassatt: Cassatt saw that works by female artists were often dismissed with contempt unless the artist had a friend or protector on the jury, and she would not flirt with jurors to curry favor.Her cynicism grew when one of the two pictures she submitted in 1875 was refused by the jury, only to be accepted the foll... | 8,863 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Out of her distress and self-criticism, Cassatt decided that she needed to move away from genre paintings and onto more fashionable subjects, in order to attract portrait commissions from American socialites abroad, but that attempt bore little fruit at first.In 1877, both her entries were rejected, and f... | 9,405 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: The Impressionists (also known as the "Independents" or "Intransigents") had no formal manifesto and varied considerably in subject matter and technique.They tended to prefer plein air painting and the application of vibrant color in separate strokes with little pre-mixing, which allows the eye to merge t... | 9,881 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Henry Bacon, a friend of the Cassatts, thought that the Impressionists were so radical that they were "afflicted with some hitherto unknown disease of the eye".They already had one female member, artist Berthe Morisot, who became Cassatt's friend and colleague.Cassatt admired Degas, whose pastels had made... | 10,320 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: "I used to go and flatten my nose against that window and absorb all I could of his art," she later recalled."It changed my life.I saw art then as I wanted to see it." | 10,669 |

0 | Mary Cassatt: She now hoped for commercial success selling paintings to the sophisticated Parisians who preferred the avant-garde.Her style had gained a new spontaneity during the intervening two years.Previously a studio-bound artist, she had adopted the practice of carrying a sketchbook with her while out-of-doors or... | 11,344 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: In 1877, Cassatt was joined in Paris by her father and mother, who returned with her sister Lydia, all eventually to share a large apartment on the fifth floor of 13, Avenue Trudaine, ().Mary valued their companionship, as neither she nor Lydia had married.A case was made that Mary suffered from narcissis... | 11,775 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Mary had decided early in life that marriage would be incompatible with her career.Lydia, who was frequently painted by her sister, suffered from recurrent bouts of illness, and her death in 1882 left Cassatt temporarily unable to work.Cassatt's father insisted that her studio and supplies be covered by h... | 12,088 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Afraid of having to paint "potboilers" to make ends meet, Cassatt applied herself to produce some quality paintings for the next Impressionist exhibition.Three of her most accomplished works from 1878 were "Portrait of the Artist" (self-portrait), "Little Girl in a Blue Armchair", and "Reading Le Figaro" ... | 12,503 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Both were highly experimental in their use of materials, trying distemper and metallic paints in many works, such as "Woman Standing Holding a Fan", 1878-79 (Amon Carter Museum of American Art).She became extremely proficient in the use of pastels, eventually creating many of her most important works in t... | 12,923 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: The two worked side by side for a while, and her draftsmanship gained considerable strength under his tutelage.One example of her thoughtful approach to the medium of drypoint as a mode for reflecting on her status as an artist is 'Reflection' of 1889–90, which has recently been interpreted as a self-port... | 13,234 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: She treasured his friendship but learned not to expect too much from his fickle and temperamental nature after a project they were collaborating on at the time, a proposed journal devoted to prints, was abruptly dropped by him.The sophisticated and well-dressed Degas, then forty-five, was a welcome dinner... | 13,755 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Through the efforts of Gustave Caillebotte, who organized and underwrote the show, the group made a profit and sold many works, although the criticism continued as harsh as ever.The "Revue des Deux Mondes" wrote, "M. Degas and Mlle.Cassatt are, nevertheless, the only artists who distinguish themselves... ... | 14,273 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Cassatt displayed eleven works, including "Lydia in a Loge, Wearing a Pearl Necklace, (Woman in a Loge)".Although critics claimed that Cassatt's colors were too bright and that her portraits were too accurate to be flattering to the subjects, her work was not savaged as was Monet's, whose circumstances we... | 14,622 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: She participated in the Impressionist Exhibitions that followed in 1880 and 1881, and she remained an active member of the Impressionist circle until 1886.In 1886, Cassatt provided two paintings for the first Impressionist exhibition in the US, organized by art dealer Paul Durand-Ruel.Her friend Louisine ... | 15,121 |

0 | Mary Cassatt: She began to exhibit her works in New York galleries as well.After 1886, Cassatt no longer identified herself with any art movement and experimented with a variety of techniques.Cassatt and her contemporaries enjoyed the wave of feminism that occurred in the 1840s, allowing them access to educational inst... | 15,847 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Likewise, women's colleges such as Vassar, Smith and Wellesley opened their doors during this time.Cassat was an outspoken advocate for women's equality, campaigning with her friends for equal travel scholarships for students in the 1860s, and the right to vote in the 1910s.Mary Cassatt depicted the "New ... | 16,292 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: As a successful, highly trained woman artist who never married, Cassatt—like Ellen Day Hale, Elizabeth Coffin, Elizabeth Nourse and Cecilia Beaux—personified the "New Woman".She "initiated the profound beginnings in recreating the image of the 'new' women", drawn from the influence of her intelligent and ... | 16,733 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Although Cassatt did not explicitly make political statements about women's rights in her work, her artistic portrayal of women was consistently done with dignity and the suggestion of a deeper, meaningful inner life.Cassatt objected to being stereotyped as a "woman artist", she supported women's suffrage... | 17,240 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Cassatt responded by selling off her work that was otherwise destined for her heirs.In particular "The Boating Party", thought to have been inspired by the birth of Eugenie's daughter Ellen Mary, was bought by the National Gallery, Washington DC.Cassatt and Degas had a long period of collaboration. | 17,738 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: The two painters had studios close together, Cassatt at 19, rue Laval, (), Degas at 4, rue Frochot, (), less than a five-minute stroll apart, and Degas developed the habit of looking in at Cassatt's studio and offering her advice and helping her gain models.They had much in common: they shared similar tas... | 18,216 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Several of Vincent van Gogh's letters attest Degas' sexual continence.Degas introduced Cassatt to pastel and engraving, both of which Cassatt quickly mastered, while for her part Cassatt was instrumental in helping Degas sell his paintings and promoting his reputation in America.Both regarded themselves a... | 18,671 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: What we need is the characteristic modern person in his clothes, in the midst of his social surroundings, at home or out in the street."After Cassatt's parents and sister Lydia joined Cassatt in Paris in 1877, Degas, Cassatt, and Lydia were often to be seen at the Louvre studying artworks together.Degas p... | 19,338 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: These were destined for a prints journal planned by Degas (together with Camille Pissarro and others), which never came to fruition.Cassatt frequently posed for Degas, notably for his millinery series trying on hats.Around 1884, Degas made a portrait in oils of Cassatt, "Mary Cassatt Seated, Holding Cards... | 19,785 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: A "Self-Portrait" (c. 1880) by Cassatt depicts her in the identical hat and dress, leading art historian Griselda Pollock to speculate they were executed in a joint painting session in the early years of their acquaintance.Cassatt and Degas worked most closely together in the fall and winter of 1879–80 wh... | 20,189 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: However, in April 1880, Degas abruptly withdrew from the prints journal they had been collaborating on, and without his support the project folded.Degas' withdrawal piqued Cassatt who had worked hard at preparing a print, "In the Opera Box", in a large edition of fifty impressions, no doubt destined for t... | 20,644 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Mathews notes that she ceased executing her theater scenes at this time.Degas was forthright in his views, as was Cassatt.They clashed over the Dreyfus affair (early in her career she had executed a portrait of the art collector Moyse Dreyfus, a relative of the court-martialled lieutenant at the center of... | 21,041 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Cassatt later expressed satisfaction at the irony of Lousine Havermeyer's 1915 joint exhibition of hers and Degas' work being held in aid of women's suffrage, equally capable of affectionately repeating Degas' antifemale comments as being estranged by them (when viewing her "Two Women Picking Fruit" for t... | 21,673 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: The earliest dated work on this subject is the drypoint "Gardner Held by His Mother" (an impression inscribed "Jan/88" is in the New York Public Library), although she had painted a few earlier works on the theme.Some of these works depict her own relatives, friends, or clients, although in her later year... | 22,272 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: The 1890s were Cassatt's busiest and most creative period.She had matured considerably and became more diplomatic and less blunt in her opinions.She also became a role model for young American artists who sought her advice. | 22,647 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Among them was Lucy A. Bacon, whom Cassatt introduced to Camille Pissarro.Though the Impressionist group disbanded, Cassatt still had contact with some of the members, including Renoir, Monet, and Pissarro.In 1891, she exhibited a series of highly original colored drypoint and aquatint prints, including "... | 22,889 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: (See Japonism) Cassatt was attracted to the simplicity and clarity of Japanese design, and the skillful use of blocks of color.In her interpretation, she used primarily light, delicate pastel colors and avoided black (a "forbidden" color among the Impressionists).Adelyn D. Breeskin, the author of two "cat... | 23,351 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Also in 1891, Chicago businesswoman Bertha Palmer approached Cassatt to paint a 12' × 58' mural about "Modern Woman" for the Women's Building for the World's Columbian Exposition to be held in 1893.Cassatt completed the project over the next two years while living in France with her mother.The mural was d... | 23,968 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: The central theme was titled "Young Women Plucking the Fruits of Knowledge or Science".The left panel was "Young Girls Pursuing Fame" and the right panel "Arts, Music, Dancing".The mural displays a community of women apart from their relation to men, as accomplished persons in their own right. | 24,188 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Palmer considered Cassatt to be an American treasure and could think of no one better to paint a mural at an exposition that was to do so much to focus the world's attention on the status of women.Unfortunately the mural did not survive following the run of the exhibition when the building was torn down.C... | 24,595 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Cassatt also exhibited other paintings in the Exposition.As the new century arrived, Cassatt served as an advisor to several major art collectors and stipulated that they eventually donate their purchases to American art museums.In recognition of her contributions to the arts, France awarded her the Légio... | 24,915 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Although instrumental in advising American collectors, recognition of her art came more slowly in the United States.Even among her family members back in America, she received little recognition and was totally overshadowed by her famous brother.Mary Cassatt's brother, Alexander Cassatt, was president of ... | 25,303 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: She was shaken, as they had been close, but she continued to be very productive in the years leading up to 1910.An increasing sentimentality is apparent in her work of the 1900s; her work was popular with the public and the critics, but she was no longer breaking new ground, and her Impressionist colleagu... | 25,668 |
0 | Mary Cassatt: Two of her works appeared in the Armory Show of 1913, both images of a mother and child.A trip to Egypt in 1910 impressed Cassatt with the beauty of its ancient art, but was followed by a crisis of creativity; not only had the trip exhausted her, but she declared herself "crushed by the strength of this A... | 26,102 |
