Portrait of Berthe Morisot. Born in 1841, Morisot was a French Impressionist painter known for her landscapes and depictions of women. #art #artsky #painting #painter #traditionalart #impressionism #morisot
French artist Berthe Morisot turns winter into modern life though not a mythic figure crowned with snow, but a Parisienne who is fashionable, composed, and unmistakably of her time. A stylish young woman with light skin turns, looking back toward us with a steady, slightly guarded gaze. Her auburn-brown hair is swept up beneath a winter hat, and a small gold earring catches the light at her left ear. She wears a brown-olive coat with flickers of green and rust in the paint, and a soft, white fur or thick scarf blooms over her shoulder and chest. A small red accent like a ribbon or flower rests at her neckline. Her hands gather around a dark fur muff. Behind her, the background dissolves into pale, windy brushstrokes, suggesting cold air more than a specific place. The muff and wrap are practical warmth, yet they also create a boundary as her hands disappear into plush darkness while her face remains exposed, readable, and self-possessed. Morisot’s quick, feathery handling lets edges blur and reform, as if the scene is caught in a momentary glance on a gray day so winter is felt like atmosphere. Shown with its partner “Summer” at the 5th Impressionist exhibition in 1880, “Winter” stakes a claim for contemporary womanhood as worthy of serious painting that is public-facing, elegantly armored, and psychologically present. In 1880, Morisot was balancing professional visibility within the male-dominated Impressionist circle with the intimate demands of family life as she had married fellow artist Eugène Manet in 1874 and was also raising their young daughter, Julie. Her lived tension between intimacy and public persona as well as softness versus structure carries over into in this painting from 145 winters ago depicting a woman both observed and observing that meets us with quiet authority rather than during some superficial performance.

Here is Berthe Morisot, sitting on the balcony in Édouard Manet's painting "Le Balcon" as seen at San Francisco's Legion of Honor. Though it was interesting to learn about their relationship and their mutual influence, the show lacked some crucial works.

"The exhibition, filled with beautiful, illuminating juxtapositions of their work and accompanied by an expansive, scholarly catalog, is superb."

Like her male counterparts, Morisot focused on painting modern life but, unlike them, she could not hang out in bars and cafés to mingle with the common folk. Being an upper class lady, however, allowed her to attend the opera and balls and so her work, which gives beautiful expression to the female experience, is filled with women attending social events and tending their children. “Young Woman at the Ball”, like most Impressionist paintings at the time, did not sell and so Morisot hung it on her dining room wall. In 1985, this painting, along with eight other Impressionist masterpieces (including five Monets), was stolen from the Musée Marmottan in Paris in a brazen daytime armed robbery. The thieves knew exactly what paintings they wanted, and they also knew that the security alarm system was only turned on at night when there were no museum visitors so the robbery took place when the museum first opened in the morning. Authorities linked the theft to organized crime in Japan. Through dogged investigation, the paintings were found in an apartment in Corsica and all were recovered in 1990. The Morisot canvas had been damaged during the theft but was able to be repaired once returned to the Musée Marmottan.
November's theme: Stolen Art
BERTHE MORISOT (1841 – 1895), “Young Woman at the Ball”, 1875. Musée Marmottan, Paris, France.
Morisot was the lone female artist who threw in her lot with the upstart French Impressionists at the beginning of their movement.

Julie, about 14, sits diagonally on a rose-toned sofa in an elegant Parisian salon, her long auburn hair loose over the dark sheen of a fitted black silk dress with full sleeves and narrow waist. Her pale hands gather in her lap as she leans slightly forward, gaze unfocused and inward. At her feet stands Laërte, a slim greyhound with a fine collar, muzzle lifted toward her for a touch. To the left, a pale blue Louis XVI chair and softly sketched Japanese prints and paintings dissolve into Morisot’s fluid strokes, the cream walls and quick lilac and green notes making the figures luminous against an airy, unfinished backdrop. Painted in 1893, months after the death of Julie’s father, Eugène Manet, this double portrait of girl and dog layers affection and grief. Julie’s black dress marks mourning, yet its severity is softened by Berthe Morisot’s vibrating color and light; she is cradled by a cultivated interior filled with art and Japan-inspired prints, visual shorthand for the family’s cosmopolitan circle. Laërte was a gift from Stéphane Mallarmé, who would become Julie’s guardian after Morisot’s death and embodies vigilance and solace, anchoring her in loyalty as she hovers between childhood and adulthood. Empty spaces like the unused chair and blurred wall read as absences, making the work a quiet elegy for a family already half-lost. This canvas belongs to Morisot’s final, daring period, when illness, personal loss, and absolute commitment to her art sharpened her touch into bolder contrasts and sweeping, seemingly unfinished marks. A founding Impressionist and the only woman to exhibit in most of the group’s shows, Morisot spent her career centering women and children with radical intimacy. Here she paints her only daughter with a new psychological depth: Julie as heir to an Impressionist dynasty and circle that includes Monet and Mallarmé. The painting stands as a testament to the fragile, enduring bond between mother, daughter, and their artistic world.

Art I’ve just discovered and fallen in love with. #artsky #art #morisot #impressionism
Schwarz-weiße Zeichnung einer Frau mit Hut – die Impressionistin Berthe Morisot – von Édouard Manet. Links steht in blauer Schrift: „Gab es Künstlerinnen im Impressionismus?“ Rechts daneben ist ein lilafarbenes Buchcover mit dem Titel: „Frauengeschichten – Kulturgeschichten aus Kunst und Musik“. Ein violetter Pfeil mit der Aufschrift „Zum Buch“ zeigt auf das Cover.
Gab es Künstlerinnen im Impressionismus?
Ja – Berthe Morisot, Mary Cassatt, Eva Gonzalès u. v. a. Sie wurden zu Lebzeiten gefeiert – und später verdrängt.
Das Buch Frauengeschichten erinnert an ihre Werke und macht sichtbar, was vergessen wurde.

Two women, in a living room on a sofa, the older one in black dress is reading, the younger one in a light dress is looking at the older woman.
Have a good weekend you all!
