Mary Cassatt (World of Art)

Anotace knihy " Mary Cassatt (World of Art), autor Griselda Pollock"

A close ally of Camille Pissarro, Berthe Morisot and Edgar Degas, Mary Cassatt was the only American painter at the heart of the Impressionist group in Paris. Highly respected on both sides of the Atlantic, Cassatt was a forthright advocate for women’s intellectual, creative and political emancipation. She brought her discerning gaze and compositional inventiveness across many media to the subtle social interactions of women in public and private spaces, such as at the theatre, and in moments of intimacy with children, where she remains one of the most attentive and unsentimental analysts of the infant body and the child’s emerging personality..
