EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from the Liszt Collection, we are transported back to 1891, where we witness the artistic brilliance of Mary Cassatt. The image showcases a delicate letter, both recto and verso, beautifully rendered with black crayon and graphite on a sheet measuring 34.6 x 23 cm. Cassatt's mastery is evident in her ability to capture the essence of human connection through her art. In "The Letter (recto); The Letter (verso)" she skillfully portrays the intimate act of correspondence. With every stroke of her crayon, she breathes life into each line and curve, evoking emotions that transcend time. As an American artist born in 1844, Cassatt was known for breaking barriers as a woman in the male-dominated art world. Her works often depicted scenes from everyday life, particularly focusing on women and children. This particular piece invites us to ponder upon the contents of this mysterious letter - its words written with care and emotion by an unseen hand. We can almost feel the anticipation or perhaps even trepidation that accompanies such communication. Through this photo print, we are reminded of Cassatt's remarkable talent for capturing fleeting moments infused with depth and meaning. It serves as a testament to her enduring legacy as one of America's most celebrated artists whose work continues to resonate with audiences worldwide.
