Edgar Degas's "Mary Cassatt at the Louvre: The Etruscan Gallery" (1879-1880) is a striking monotype depicting the renowned American Impressionist Mary Cassatt in the Louvre Museum. Degas's distinctive use of line and shading captures Cassatt's posture and concentration as she studies Etruscan artifacts, highlighting the artist's intellectual curiosity and dedication to her craft. This monotype, housed at the Art Institute of Chicago, offers a glimpse into the world of artistic exchange and inspiration during the Impressionist era.
