식후 커피 (앞면)
c. 1889
Mary Cassatt was a master of capturing the quiet, unglamorous moments of women's lives, and this sketch is a perfect example. Here, a woman sits slumped slightly at a table, clutching a coffee cup and saucer with a look of weary contemplation—perhaps the 'food coma' is real even in the 19th century! The loose, energetic lines suggest Cassatt was working quickly to catch a fleeting expression, prioritizing the mood of the moment over polished perfection. It’s a refreshing departure from the stiff portraits of the era, showing real people doing real things.
