EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Mary Cassatt, Waiting" we are transported back to the late 19th century. The artist, Mary Cassatt, an American painter known for her intimate portrayals of women and children, captures a moment of anticipation and contemplation. The aquatint and soft-ground etching techniques used in this artwork lend a delicate texture to the image. We see a young woman seated on a chair with her hands clasped together in her lap. Her gaze is fixed somewhere beyond our view, lost in thought or perhaps waiting for someone or something. Cassatt's attention to detail is evident in every aspect of this composition. From the intricate patterns on the fabric of the chair to the subtle play of light and shadow on the subject's face, each element adds depth and emotion to the scene. The timeless quality of this print allows us to connect with its universal theme - that feeling of longing or expectation that we have all experienced at some point in our lives. It serves as a reminder that despite being created over a century ago, art has an enduring power to evoke emotions and provoke introspection. Quint Lox's skillful reproduction brings out the essence of Cassatt's original work from Liszt Collection. This print invites us into Mary Cassatt's world, where moments frozen in time continue to resonate with viewers today.
