Berthe Morisot painted women in a way that others couldn’t—or wouldn’t.
In the late 1800s, when so many artists were idealizing women, Morisot revealed their inner truths. Her brush captured the essence of quiet moments—a woman lost in thought, her mind somewhere far away; a mother with her child, the weight of love and exhaustion written in her posture. These weren’t performances; they were realities.
Her work pulls you in. It asks you to sit in the solitude of her subjects, to feel their softness, and to carry their burdens.
