Mary Cassatt worked as an artist and busin esswoman in an age when most women of her station were restricted to the h ome. Despite this\, she was able to work within her social structure to ac hieve success by painting private domestic subjects and subjects derived f rom the everyday life of modern women. She recognized a market opportunity for images of motherhood and depicted ordinary mothers and kids in striki ng compositions. Jeff Mishur will be discussing a selection of works and t hemes that Cassatt pursued during her career.
