Mary Stevenson Cassatt, Portrait of Madame X Dressed for the Matinée, 1877-1878, oil on canvas

#ncma #i loved her smile #it was so cool to read that this was the context of a woman attending the theater #cause previously women had to be escorted but then they were allowed to go by themselves in the afternon only #so i loved that she was able to partake in the entertainement on her own terms and that she was independent like that #and like shes literally so me on a stroll going to watch movies #like i loveeee watching my silly little movies and we both get to watch them

Mary Cassatt, “The Bath”, 1891

Mary Stevenson Cassatt (1844–1926), began her formal training at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts in 1861 before moving to Paris to continue her studies. She took private lessons and practiced her technique by copying works from old masters. In 1861, her first work was accepted into the Paris Salon, the official art exhibition of the Académie des Beaux-Arts. Cassatt began to regularly show at Paris salons and was invited to join a group of Impressionist artists by #EdgarDegas, who later became her mentor. She refined her style and became focused on figure compositions, especially those of mothers and children. "The Bath” is part of a larger series of related works, each of which Cassatt treats with a tender and caring hand. Via nmwa

Art of the 18th Century

- Further Research

Research into industrialism and potential sources when creating my own work inspired by the subject matter. Artists around the time of the industrial revolution; Edgar Degas, Claude Monet, Mary Stevenson Cassatt, Paul Cézanne, Georges Seurat, Vincent Van Gogh, Paul Gauguin. These artists and their work will be helpful reference in understanding how the world looked during the 18th century, I don't want to work in their style however this amongst other references will really help inspire me to imagine the sounds of this technological shift.

- Interesting references

‘Many paths were opened to art and architecture, but all of them can be summarized in one: the freedom of creation. The influence of the industrial revolution in art had its continuity in artistic expression. Since then, and even today, art continues in the same direction.’

‘While the Industrial Revolution turned blue skies grey and pumped sewage into once picturesque rivers.’ ‘The advent of modernity ushered in international turmoil, concerns over labor conditions, and rampant pollution.’

“As our cities and technologies rapidly change, [the industrial age is] a journey that continues to resonate today,”

‘The Industrial Revolution in Britain was a period deemed to be between 1780 and 1830. It was an episode in British history which saw the transition from being agricultural to being industrial.’

Despite the proliferation of new, prodigious machines rotating, melting, pressing and tilting, one could object that the representation of very technical, lifeless objects could dull the senses in the long run, even if shown within a landscape.

‘The Industrial Revolution brought profound changes into the world, re-designing its shape in the most hardhearted of ways, never experienced before by humanity.’

‘Art of the Industrial Revolution tends to be pastoral, plein-aire, more often a reaction against the speed and metal of the industrial age.’

Industrial Revolution on Architecture

Another huge change that came with industrialisation was that architects and engineers could now experiment and rearranged the concept of function, size, and form due to the impact of industrial revolution.

- Interesting references

‘The application of iron, and particularly steel, to architecture greatly expanded the structural capabilities of existing materials, and created new ones.’

Mary Stevenson Cassatt, In the Loge, 1879

Painting depicts very interesting and complex relationship between the observer and the observed. Observer - the woman in a black dress, while observing the stage using opera glasses (what if she is looking at the other man or woman?), becomes observed herself by the man in the back lodge. It is an interesting full circle story, which we, a viewers, are also observing.

Artist quite visibly smooths over the details, even the room is only suggested. That way we can focus our attention on the woman in the foregorund.
