More about this artwork

Berthe Morisot's painting, "The Pink Dress," created around 1870, offers a delightful glimpse into the elegance and subtlety of her artistic approach. This portrait features Albertie-Marguerite Carré, later known as Madame Ferdinand-Henri Himmes, dressed in a light, delicate pink gown that exemplifies the period's fashion.Morisot, celebrated for her contributions to the Impressionist movement, masterfully captures the various textures of the fabric with loose, expressive brush strokes that convey both softness and volume. The sitter's composed posture and direct gaze impart a sense of quiet confidence, inviting viewers into her world.The surrounding setting is rendered with an equally gentle touch, featuring a blurred background that subtly highlights the figure and her vibrant dress. On the left side of the painting, a flower pot adds a dash of vivid colors, providing a harmonious blend of natural and man-made beauty.This painting is not only a testament to Morisot's skill in portrait painting but also an evocative representation of the fashion and cultural ethos of late 19th-century France.

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.
