Mary Cassatt (1844-1926)


Mary Cassatt, born in 1844, in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania, was an American impressionist painter and printmaker. Cassatt most often used women and children as her painting subjects, with an emphasis on the bonds between mother and child. Mary Cassatt has always been one of my favorite impressionist artists because of her elegant use of color and texture in all her paintings.
