Exhibition at the Musée Jacquemart-André, Paris, 9 March - 23 July 2018
Considered during her lifetime as the greatest American artist, Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) lived in France for more than sixty years.
This exhibition catalogue focuses on the only American female artist in the Impressionist movement; she was spotted by Degas in the 1874 Salon, and subsequently exhibited her works alongside those of the group. It allows to rediscover Mary Cassatt through fifty major works, comprising oils, pastels, drawings, and engravings, which, complemented by various documentary sources, convey her modernist approach - that of an American woman in Paris.
