Monika Lind Talk: Berthe, Morisot, Mary Cassatt and the Impressionists

Discover the remarkable stories of Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt, two pioneering artists who helped shape the Impressionist movement and challenged the conventions of the 19th-century art world.

Working in an era dominated by male artists, Morisot and Cassatt forged highly individual careers, bringing a fresh perspective to Impressionism through their depictions of women's lives and everyday domestic scenes. While united by their commitment to the movement, each developed a distinctive artistic style and unique approach to subject matter.

Presented by Monika Lind, this engaging talk explores the lives, achievements and lasting influence of these extraordinary women, revealing how they overcame barriers and secured their place among the leading figures of Impressionist art.
