Mary Cassatt, Reading ‘La Figaro’, 1878, oil on canvas.

Although perhaps most famous for her depiction of motherhood Cassatt was also a pioneering painter of real everyday women who did not simply comply to a sentimental stereotype. Here we can see an example of the 'New Woman’ confident, independent and intellectual.
