Morisot’s art provides a window into the social changes of Bourgeois women in the 19th C & their evolving gain in autonomy. She died, sadly, before women got the vote. Little Girls At Window (1892), Two Nymphs (1892), Jeanne Pontillon (1893) & On the Balcony (1893)

Academics dismissed Morisot until recently. They viewed her work as sentimental, thus allowing their own preconceptions to colour their (male) view. Woman in Black (1878), A Summers Day (1879), Women Picking Flowers (1879) & Young Woman Dressed for the Ball (1879)

Morisot’s philosophy was to paint light & dissolve colour into component parts for the eye to mix. Critics have described this as feathery brushstrokes but that is to miss her goal. The Psyche Mirror (1876), Woman with a Fan (1876), Tureen & Apple (1877) & Summer (1878)
