Painting Description
"Lady at the Tea Table" is an 1885 oil painting by American artist Mary Cassatt, renowned for her contributions to the Impressionist movement and her depictions of the private lives of women. The painting is a portrait of Mary Dickinson Riddle, Cassatt's maternal cousin, and exemplifies Cassatt's skill in capturing the essence of her sitters while also reflecting the social rituals of her time.
The artwork measures 29 1/2 x 24 inches (74.9 x 61 cm) and is part of the collection at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. In "Lady at the Tea Table," Cassatt employs a soft, yet vibrant color palette to render the scene with a delicate luminosity, a characteristic feature of her mature style. The subject is portrayed in a moment of quiet repose, seated at a tea table with a teacup in hand, suggesting the importance of tea time as a social and cultural institution among the upper-middle-class women of the period.
Cassatt's composition and brushwork reflect the influence of her Impressionist contemporaries, with whom she exhibited in Paris. However, she also brings her unique perspective as a female artist, focusing on the intimate and often overlooked aspects of women's lives. The painting is celebrated for its nuanced representation of the subject's personality and the subtle interplay of light and shadow, which adds depth and texture to the scene.
"Lady at the Tea Table" is a testament to Cassatt's ability to infuse her portraits with psychological depth and to elevate everyday moments into subjects worthy of fine art. The work remains an important example of Cassatt's contribution to American art and the Impressionist movement, offering insight into the social dynamics and gender roles of the late 19th century.
