The Sewing Lesson (aka The Artist's Daughter, Julie, with Her Nanny) 1884

Berthe Morisot's "The Sewing Lesson", painted in 1884, is a captivating Impressionist portrait of her daughter Julie with her nanny. Morisot, a prominent female artist in the 19th century, captured the intimate moment of a young girl learning to sew. The loose brushstrokes and vibrant colors, characteristic of Impressionism, create a sense of movement and light, drawing the viewer into the scene. The painting's focus on domesticity and the relationship between mother and child was a common theme in Morisot's work, reflecting her personal experiences and the evolving role of women in society.
