More about this artwork

"In the Dining Room" (1886) is an evocative oil painting by French artist Berthe Morisot, known for her significant contributions to the Impressionist movement. Morisot brilliantly captures an intimate and serene moment within a domestic setting.This artwork portrays a young woman seated at a dining room table, engrossed in the delicate task of sewing. The subject is likely a domestic worker or a member of the bourgeois household, indicative of many of Morisot's subjects which often centered around the lives of women in their private spaces. The room is bathed in natural light filtering through a large window, which enlivens the colours and textures captured in Morisot's loose brushstrokes—an Impressionist hallmark.The setting is vividly detailed, with reflections on the window panes and subtle highlights on the polished furniture and silverware. A softly-blurred white cat naps blissfully beside the woman, adding a touch of everyday life and tranquility to the scene. Behind the central figure, a partially visible dining table holds the remnants of a meal, suggesting the time of day and further grounding the painting in its domestic theme."In the Dining Room" is not only a beautiful representation of Morisot's artistry and her attention to the nuances of light and shadow but also a quiet commentary on the roles and personal moments of women during the late 19th century.

Landscapes and still life by French impressionist painter Berthe Morisot (1841–1895). She was celebrated for the feminine qualities of her paintings, intuitiveness, spontaneity and delicacy, and she often included her daughter Julie in her paintings. Berthe was married to the brother of Édouard Manet, and some say she was his muse, as she modeled in many of his paintings.
