The Tea (1880)
The reality was that a woman couldn’t develop a professional artistic career unless she had a patron, friend or a flirting relationship with a member of the jury.
At the Salon, they no longer wanted “the crazy woman” and this is when #Degas invited her to exhibit her work with the impressionists.
Little Girl in a Blue Armchair (1878)
Cassatt was able to attend the Exposition Universelle of 1855 where she first saw the works of #Degas and #Pissarro, whom later would become her colleagues and mentors.
It was after this event, she decided to enroll into art academy that, at the time, were already accepting “fresh” female artists.
A section of Edgar Degas's painting "Orchestra Musicians," overlaid with white text that reads "Why Degas painted the shadows." The scene shows ballet dancers on stage in the background, and the backs of several male musicians, particularly their heads and instruments (like a cello and a bassoon), in the foreground.
We applaud the dancers in the spotlight, but Edgar Degas forces us to look down into the pit, making room for the musicians sweating in the dark.
If you are out there sweating in the shadows today—keep playing.

Degas's Women are a bit like Brigitte Bardot.
Who knows if it was the painter himself who created that model of French beauty, or if Degas, like Brigitte Bardot, were simply the ones who personified, better than anyone else,
a model of beauty that already existed.
