Young Woman and Child in a Garden

Artist: Mary Cassatt
Artwork: Young Woman and Child in a Garden
Description: This painting is an example of Cassatt’s Impressionist style, which is characterized by its use of light and color to capture the fleeting effects of natural light. The painting depicts a young woman and a child in a garden, with the woman seated on a bench and the child standing next to her. The background is a blur of green and yellow, which suggests the lush foliage of the garden. The painting is a study in contrasts, with the dark blue of the woman’s dress and the pale pink of the child’s dress providing a striking contrast to the bright yellow of the background. The painting is also a study in light and shadow, with the woman’s face and the child’s face being the only parts of the painting that are fully illuminated.
