Est: $600 - $1,200
Mary Cassatt (American, 1844-1926) dry point etching, "The Manicure". Showing a mother with child in her lap. Condition: Some foxing, spots, discoloration. Overall Size: 21 1/2 x 17 1/2 in. Sight Size: 9 x 7 in. #1132 Mary Cassatt was born in 1844 in Allegheny City, Pennsylvania. She lived with her mother in Europe from 1851 to 1858, studying in Paris, Parma, and Seville, before returning to America to study at the Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts from 1861 to 1865. In 1868 she had her first painting exhibited at the Paris Salon, and began to work alongside Auguste Renoir, Alfred Sisley, and Edgar Degas, who invited her to join the Impressionists. Much of her early work was destroyed in the Great Chicago Fire of 1870, when she fled back to America to escape the Franco-Prussian War. In 1878 she sent two of her paintings to exhibit with the Society of American Artists, making them some of the first Impressionist works shown in the New World. From 1879 to 1886 she was one of only three women to exhibit with the Impressionists, and the only American woman. At the 1881 Impressionist Exhibition Cassatt first displayed pictures of the mother and child theme for which she is best known. After the final Impressionist exhibition of 1886, Cassatt began to experiment more widely, transforming her imagery with references to Old Master Madonna and Child paintings as well as Japanese prints. Gradually she abandoned Impressionist work for paintings that emphasized shapes and forms, as well as becoming increasingly involved in womens rights causes. Her relationship with Degas is still hotly debated today, as neither of them ever married but spent most of their artistic lives together, eventually falling out over the Dreyfus Affair and artistic disagreements in the 1890s, remaining close (but never collaborating) until his death in 1917. By 1914 she had to give up painting because of poor eyesight, and after her death in 1926 her reputation grew until she became one of the most acclaimed female artists of all time.

MARY CASSATT Peasant Mother and Child. Drypoint on cream laid paper, circa 1894. 296x236 mm; 11¾x9¼ inches, full margins. Third state (of 5). One of only a few known proofs in this state (Breeskin notes another proof at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston; and a proof with background and color tones on the dresses and flesh in the National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.).

Cockcroft, New York; sold Swann Auction Galleries, New York, March 7, 2013, sale 2306, lot 96; private collection, Maine. The majority of Mary T. Cockcroft's renowned collection of Cassatt paintings, pastels and 14 important aquatints and etchings was gifted to the Brooklyn Museum in 1946. This exceedingly scarce drypoint predates the published color version of this subject, in drypoint and aquatint, also very uncommon and known in only a handful of extant impressions. Breeskin 159.

MARY CASSATT Under the Horse Chestnut Tree.
Est: $7,000 - $10,000
MARY CASSATT Under the Horse Chestnut Tree. Color aquatint and drypoint on antique cream laid paper, 1896-97. 403x287 mm; 15⅞x11⅜ inches, wide margins. Fourth state (of 4), with full colors. Edition of approximately 45. Published by L'Estampe Nouvelle, Paris. The proprietary name Adriaan Rogge with a crowned coat-of-arms watermark. A very good, well-inked impression, inked in the manner of a monotype, with strong colors. Born in Philadelphia into a well-to-do family, Cassatt (1844-1926) spent most of her adult life in Europe (Paris mainly) and, along with Berthe Morisot, went on to become one of the most celebrated female Impressionist artists. Edgar Degas served as her artistic mentor for some time and in 1876 invited her to show in the next Impressionist exhibition, insisting that, "Most women paint like they are trimming hats, (but) not you." Cassatt and Degas initially had a close friendship (though they later had a falling out, not uncharacteristic of Degas' relationships) and it was under Degas' guidance that Cassatt developed her techniques in pastels and printmaking. Cassatt made 220 etchings, drypoints and aquatints between the mid-1870s and early 1900s. Most of her prints were pulled in editions of 25 or fewer, rarely was any of her printed œuvre published. While she relied on Degas for his technical printmaking expertise, Cassatt was deeply influenced by traditional Japanese Ukiyo-e color woodcuts when she began work on this and several other color aquatints in the 1890s which mark the pinnacle of her career. In 1890, she and Degas had visited an exhibition of Japanese art at the École des Beaux-Arts in Paris, and thereafter she began collecting Ukiyo-e woodcuts (notably by Utamaro and his circle) and she determined to produce a series of prints based on these Japanese woodcuts. She wrote to the American collector Samuel P. Avery, "The set was done with the intention of attempting an imitation of the Japanese methods." While she focused instead on producing these as color aquatints with etching (with Degas' assistance), rather than woodcuts in the Japanese style, these mark a highpoint in Impressionist printmaking still today.
