Mary Cassatt was the only female artist to exhibit with the Impressionists. Her tender and profound paintings redefined portraiture and broke down barriers for women in art—both as artists and as subjects. This collection focuses on Cassatt's insightful portrayal of women and children living their everyday lives. I edited this book from start to finish, selecting fifty works to represent the scope of Cassatt’s career, and commissioning two essays to contextualize her as a pioneering female artist and as the American face of Impressionist painting.
