About the piece
This evocative self-portrait by American Impressionist Mary Cassatt showcases her mastery of color and form through loose, confident brushwork. Painted around 1880, the work features a striking contrast between the deep tones of her attire and the airy, luminous background, offering a rare glimpse into the artist's self-perception during her influential years in Paris.
