About the Artwork

Young Mother Sewing - Item # 2475778

In about 1890 Cassatt redirected her art toward women caring for children and children alone-themes that reflected her affection for her nieces and nephews and the prevailing cultural interest in child rearing. Cassatt enlisted two unrelated models to enact the roles of mother and child for this painting. Louisine Havemeyer, who purchased it in 1901, remarked on its truthfulness: Look at that little child that has just thrown herself against her mother's knee, regardless of the result and oblivious to the fact that she could disturb her mamma.' And she is quite right, she does not disturb her mother. Mamma simply draws back a bit and continues to sew.

About the Artist

Mary Cassatt

Mary Cassatt (1844 - 1926) was one of "les trois grandes dames" of Impressionism, both a masterful painter and printmaker who used pastel colors in ways that few artists had dared before her. Much like her good friend and collaborator Edgar Degas, Cassatt’s paintings depict the intimate moments of women’s daily lives, and perhaps most famously, she had a remarkable gift for capturing the beauty in the smallest moments between a mother and child. Her art encapsulates the delicate minutia of such relationships, from the tender patience of one mother bathing her toddler, to the sweet affection of another kissing her infant goodnight. With her command of color and impressionistic genius, Cassatt’s images manage to convey women’s lives both authentically and graciously, highlighting the exquisite within the seemingly mundane.
