About the piece

Painted in 1879, this celebrated work by Mary Cassatt captures the glamour of the Paris Opera. The artist utilizes a palette of soft pinks and warm golds to depict her subject adorned in pearls, brilliantly rendering the play of light and social theater through loose, confident brushwork.
