Eddy Cassatt 1875

"Eddy Cassatt" is an 1875 portrait by American Impressionist painter Mary Cassatt. The painting features a young boy, presumably Cassatt's nephew, dressed in a rich red velvet suit and standing beside a small dog. Cassatt is known for her depictions of mothers and children, and her works often capture the intimacy and affection between family members. Her Impressionistic style is evident in the loose brushstrokes and use of light and shadow to create a sense of realism. The painting's warm tones and soft textures create a sense of tenderness and domesticity, highlighting the close bond between the child and the animal.
