More about this artwork

Explore the tender subtlety of Berthe Morisot's "Le Petit Saint-Jean" (1890), a masterpiece that captures the innocence and vulnerability of youth. In this evocative pastel work, Morisot delicately portrays a young child wrapped in a light, gauzy material that loosely drapes over his body. The child's soft gaze is directed slightly upwards, lost either in contemplation or daydream. His rosy cheeks and the gentle, diffused application of pastels add a dreamlike quality to the painting, infusing it with a sense of quiet wonder.Morisot, one of the few prominent female artists in the Impressionist movement, is renowned for her intimate, immediate portrayals of family life and children. "Le Petit Saint-Jean" exemplifies her skill in using light and subtle color to evoke emotion and atmosphere. The cool blue background contrasts beautifully with the warmth of the child's flesh tones, an interplay that highlights the artist's exquisite color sensibility.This painting invites viewers to a moment of reflective stillness, reflecting Morisot's profound ability to translate everyday moments into scenes of profound emotional depth and beauty.

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.
