A tender pastel drawing by Mary Cassatt, "Mother's Goodnight Kiss" captures a quiet, intimate moment between a mother and her child. The soft colours and delicate lines create a warm and comforting atmosphere.
Mary Cassatt, an American artist who spent much of her adult life in France, is celebrated for her intimate depictions of women, particularly mothers with their children. Cassatt's work offers a counterpoint to the male-dominated Impressionist circle, providing a female perspective on domestic life and social interactions. She was deeply influenced by Edgar Degas, who encouraged her to exhibit with the Impressionists. Her work often explores the emotional bonds between mothers and children, rendered with a delicate touch and keen observation. In "Mother's Goodnight Kiss", Cassatt captures a tender moment between a mother and child. The mother, dressed in a dark brown jacket over a light blouse, leans in to kiss her child on the cheek. The child, wearing a bright blue dress, raises a hand to their face, perhaps in a gesture of sleepiness or comfort. The pastel medium lends a soft, almost dreamlike quality to the scene, with gentle gradations of colour and subtle textures. The background is a blend of blues and yellows, creating a warm, intimate atmosphere. Cassatt's focus on the everyday moments of domestic life elevates the ordinary to the level of fine art.

Beautiful print, great quality and love it with the white frame. Delivery was really fast. I've had loads of compliments from visitors as I've hung it in my hallway as the first thing you see when you enter the house. Couldn't be happier.

The only American Impressionist, invited by Degas, who painted mothers and children with unsentimental precision and told American millionaires what to buy.
