The Artist's Sister at a Window, 1869
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating oil painting by Berthe Morisot that beautifully captures the essence of 19th-century life. In this intimate portrait, we see Morisot's sister, Edma, seated in an apartment with a window overlooking the countryside. The artist skillfully uses color and light to create a sense of tranquility and leisure within the scene. The soft hues and delicate brushstrokes give the painting an impressionistic quality, characteristic of Morisot's style. Edma's profile is elegantly framed by the open window, emphasizing her contemplative mood as she gazes out into the distance. As one of few female artists during her time, Morisot often used her family members as subjects for her artwork. Here, she presents us with a glimpse into their private world – an interior space filled with warmth and familiarity. The choice of clothing and furniture further adds to the authenticity of this domestic setting. Displayed in the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "The Artist's Sister at a Window" serves as both a testament to Morisot's talent as well as an important piece within heritage art collections worldwide. It invites viewers to appreciate not only its aesthetic beauty but also reflect on themes such as family bonds, femininity in artistry, and everyday moments frozen in time. This print allows us to bring home a piece of history while celebrating Berthe Morisot's contribution to Impressionism and women
