Little Girl in a Blue Armchair | Mary Cassatt | 1878
Little Girl in a Blue Armchair (1878) by Mary Cassatt is a striking Impressionist portrait that captures a moment of candid childhood repose. The painting features a young girl lounging casually in a plush, oversized blue armchair, her posture unposed and relaxed. Surrounding her are other matching armchairs, one occupied by a small dog, enhancing the intimate, domestic setting. Cassatt's bold brushwork and rich palette emphasize texture and pattern, while the asymmetrical composition reflects the influence of Japanese aesthetics. The work challenges traditional portraiture by portraying the child with spontaneity and individuality, embodying Cassatt’s innovative approach to depicting modern life.
