Woman in a Loge

Artist: Mary Stevenson Cassatt (American, 1844–1926)

Date: 1879

Medium: Oil on canvas

Collection: Philadelphia Museum of Art, Philadelphia, Pennsylvania, United States

Description

Cassatt created a series of theater scenes in the late 1870s, displaying an interest in city nightlife shared by many of the Impressionists. This work, showing a woman (often said to be her sister Lydia) seated in front of a mirror with the balconies of the Paris Opéra House reflected behind her, demonstrates the influence of Cassatt's friend Edgar Degas, particularly in the attention paid to the effects of artificial lighting on flesh tones. This painting was shown in Paris at the fourth Impressionist exhibition in 1879, where it was singled out for much praise.

Yellow on the Golden Lane Estate, London

Today I found some time to visit the Golden Lane Estate near the Barbican in London and to take some urban photographs which I hadn't done for a while. The Golden Lane Estate was built in the 1950s and is now Grade II listed. For more urban photographs of London including the Golden Lane Estate, visit my tumblr London Edge
