EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil painting titled "Little Girl in a Blue Armchair". Mary Stevenson Cassatt beautifully captures the innocence and tranquility of childhood. The young girl, dressed in a delicate white dress, reclines comfortably on a blue armchair, her small feet adorned with socks peeking out from beneath the fabric. With her eyes closed and lips slightly parted, she appears to be lost in a peaceful slumber. The artist's skillful use of light and color creates an impressionistic atmosphere that adds depth and emotion to the scene. The soft brushstrokes give life to every detail - from the intricate patterns on the upholstery to the folds of the girl's dress. A loyal companion rests at her side; a dog curled up beside her chair, mirroring its owner's serene state. Cassatt's portrayal of this little girl evokes feelings of nostalgia and tenderness as we are reminded of our own cherished memories or perhaps long for simpler times. Through this artwork, she invites us into a world where time stands still and dreams take flight. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, this masterpiece is part of Mr. and Mrs. Paul Mellon's private collection – an exquisite addition that showcases Cassatt's remarkable talent as one of America’s most celebrated artists.
