Original Description
Mary Cassatt's Femme Se Coiffant (circa 1889-1894) captures an intimate moment of a woman tending to her hair, radiating quiet elegance and introspection. Executed in soft pastels—Cassatt's signature medium during this period—the artwork blends Impressionist spontaneity with refined draftsmanship. The composition's diagonal lines and muted yet luminous palette (dominated by peach, ivory, and cornflower blue) create rhythmic harmony, while loose strokes suggest movement, hallmarks of Cassatt’s mature style influenced by Japanese woodblock prints. As one of few American artists embraced by the French Impressionist circle, Cassatt revolutionized depictions of women’s private lives, elevating domestic scenes to high art. This piece exemplifies her feminist perspective, portraying its subject with agency rather than as a decorative object—a radical stance in 19th-century art.
For interior settings, Femme Se Coiffant lends sophistication to minimalist or transitional spaces. Hang it in a dressing area or bedroom to echo its intimate theme, or in a home office to introduce artistic serenity. Its 24 x 20-inch dimensions suit medium-sized walls flanked by slender sconces or positioned above a console table. Frame it in a slim gilt or whitewashed oak molding to complement Cassatt’s delicate hues, which pair beautifully with Farrow & Ball’s Setting Plaster walls or smoky blue upholstery. In corporate spaces, display it alongside Degas’ ballet sketches or Morisot’s works to curate an Impressionist vignette. Avoid cluttering nearby décor—let Cassatt’s ethereal palette and graceful subject remain the focal point, balanced by streamlined furniture and natural textures like linen or rattan.
