Mary Cassatt was fiercely independent and never married, choosing instead to focus on her art and her close-knit family. This intimate etching captures her mother, Mrs. Cassatt, completely absorbed in her knitting, spectacles perched on her nose against a dramatic, inky black background. As the only American invited to exhibit with the French Impressionists, Cassatt revolutionized art by treating everyday domestic scenes—like a mother knitting—as serious subjects, highlighting the quiet dignity and concentration of women's lives.
