About the piece

Created in 1888, this pastel by Berthe Morisot exemplifies her masterful ability to capture light and domestic intimacy. The work features two young girls—likely the artist's daughter Julie and her cousin—engaged in a music lesson, rendered with the loose, luminous strokes and soft color palette characteristic of French Impressionism.
