About the piece

Painted in 1879, this luminous portrait by Berthe Morisot exemplifies the Impressionist fascination with light and modern life. The subject is depicted in a shimmering white ball gown, her delicate features and soft expression framed by a background of lush, sketchy greenery that highlights the artist's masterful use of rapid, confident brushwork.
