An American ex-pat in Paris, Mary Cassatt mostly captured women and children in candid backdrops. She had a deep friendship with Degas, who painted her a few times, and it was through him she became involved with the Impressionists. The Child’s Bath (1893), Mother and Child before a Pool (1898) and Woman with a Pearl Necklace in a Loge (1879) are among her most notable works.
