Berthe Morisot (1841-1895) was one of the founders of Impressionism. She was also a brilliant interpreter of femininity. Morisot's luminous images of women's daily experience tapped the resources of both a widespread women's amateur painting tradition and an elite artistic avant-garde. Anne Higonnet, Assistant Professor of Art History at Wellesley College and a noted authority on Morisot, describes the development of the artist's style, subject matter, and career. She shows how Morisot, by participating in the most radical art movement of her time, became able to express her unique vision.

"A memorable portrait of an admirable woman, as elegantly simple and light in touch as a Manet, or a Morisot."--"Entertainment Weekly
'Ann Higonnet makes an excellent case for re-routing our assumptions about artistic achievement. And she makes it imperative that we reconsider the achievements of Berthe Morisot.' --Felicia Kornbluh, 'Women's Review of Books'
