More about this artwork

In the intimate painting titled "Woman Bathing" (1890-1891) by the celebrated artist Mary Cassatt, we are invited into a tranquil, private moment. This artwork, known for its delicate portrayal of everyday life and feminine domesticity, depicts a woman bent over a wash basin, absorbed in her personal ritual of washing. The scene is set against a serene backdrop of soft, muted tones, exemplifying Cassatt’s mastery in using color to evoke mood and atmosphere.The woman is dressed in a long, striped garment that cascades down her back, adding a playful contrast to the otherwise subdued palette. Noteworthy is the attention to detail Cassatt pays to the patterns and textiles, from the bold stripes of the woman's attire to the intricate floral design on the carpet. A small pitcher resting beside her adds a further touch of domestic detail and suggests the simplicity of the setting.This painting stands out as an exploration of womanhood and privacy, themes often revisited by Cassatt, who was pivotal in depicting the lives and experiences of women with both sensitivity and depth. Through her thoughtful composition and gentle brushwork, Cassatt not only captures a moment of everyday life but also celebrates the quiet dignity of her subject.

Mary Stevenson Cassatt was an American painter and printmaker. She was born in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania (now part of Pittsburgh’s North Side), but lived much of her adult life in France where she befriended Edgar Degas and exhibited with the Impressionists. Cassatt often created images of the social and private lives of women, with particular emphasis on the intimate bonds between mothers and children.

She was described by Gustave Geffroy as one of "les trois grandes dames" (the three great ladies) of Impressionism alongside Marie Bracquemond and Berthe Morisot.In 1879, Diego Martelli compared her to Degas, as they both sought to depict movement, light, and design in the most modern sense.
