About the piece
Painted in 1872, 'The Cradle' is one of Berthe Morisot's most celebrated works, depicting her sister Edma watching over her sleeping daughter. This masterpiece of Impressionism is renowned for its delicate brushwork and sophisticated handling of light, particularly in the translucent white netting that drapes over the infant's bed.
