1890-1891
Mary Cassatt captures the quiet intimacy of a dress fitting in this delicate sketch, likely a preparatory study for her famous pastel and print versions. A woman stands patiently while a seated figure—likely a dressmaker—attends to her gown, with another woman visible in the background, perhaps checking her reflection. The loose, energetic lines offer a fascinating glimpse into Cassatt's creative process as she observed the private rituals of modern women. As an American Impressionist living in Paris, she elevated these mundane domestic moments into high art, showing us the world through a distinctly female gaze.
