Mary Cassatt at the Louvre: The Paintings Gallery, 1879-1880. Creator: Edgar Degas (French
Mary Cassatt at the Louvre: The Paintings Gallery, 1879-1880. Degas and his friends Mary Cassatt and Camille Pissarro were all experimental printmakers who combined traditional printmaking techniques to create a black and white equivalent for the tonality and varied textures of paintings. They were all so involved in printmaking that in 1879-80 they planned to publish a journal, Le Jour et la nuit (Day and Night), that would contain original etchings. As a printmaker, Degas was ambivalent about when a plate was considered finished. What attracted him to printmaking was the variability. He thoroughly enjoyed reworking, retouching, and transforming plates, often progressing toward more subtle painterly effects

EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Mary Cassatt at the Louvre: The Paintings Gallery, 1879-1880" showcases a remarkable moment in art history. Created by Edgar Degas, a prominent French artist of the 19th century, this image captures the essence of experimentation and collaboration among renowned printmakers. Degas, along with his talented friends Mary Cassatt and Camille Pissarro, pushed the boundaries of traditional printmaking techniques to create a black and white equivalent that could convey the tonality and varied textures found in paintings. Their dedication to this craft was so profound that they even planned to publish a journal called Le Jour et la nuit (Day and Night) featuring their original etchings. What made Degas particularly unique as a printmaker was his ambivalence towards considering a plate finished. He reveled in the variability offered by this medium, thoroughly enjoying reworking, retouching, and transforming plates to achieve more subtle painterly effects. This print from Heritage Art/Heritage Images not only pays homage to Degas' artistic prowess but also serves as an important reminder of the Impressionist movement's impact on art history. It is housed within The Cleveland Museum of Art's collection—a testament to its cultural significance. As we gaze upon this image, we are transported back in time—immersed in an era where innovative minds like Degas sought new ways to capture beauty through prints.
