The Mother and Sister of the Artist, 1869/1870
EDITORS COMMENTS
is a captivating print by Berthe Morisot that offers a glimpse into the personal life of this renowned artist. In this intimate portrait, Morisot showcases her deep connection with her family, capturing the essence of motherhood and sisterhood in a single frame. The black color palette adds an air of elegance to the composition, emphasizing the timeless beauty and significance of familial bonds. The drawing room setting provides a cozy backdrop for this heartfelt moment shared between mother and daughter. Morisot's sister, Edma Morisot, serves as both muse and model in this artwork. Her presence exudes grace and poise as she gazes thoughtfully into the distance. Meanwhile, their mother Marie Josephine Cornélie Thomas radiates warmth and tenderness as she cradles her daughter's hand. As one of the leading figures in Impressionism, Berthe Morisot revolutionized art by challenging societal norms surrounding female artists. This photograph not only showcases her exceptional talent but also highlights her role as a trailblazer for women in art during the 19th century. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington D. C. , "The Mother and Sister of the Artist" stands as a testament to Berthe Morisot's artistic legacy while immortalizing an intimate moment within her own family history.
