Mary Cassatt by Nancy Mowll Mathews( Book )

7 editions published in 1987 in English and Undetermined and held by 1,466 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"As one of the country's greatest artists Mary Cassatt has entered the ranks of American heroes," Mathews concludes after 15 years' research. The shortness of the volume (and the plentitude of excellent black-and-white illustrations and color plates) tends to restrict this monograph to survey length. Yet the book includes a clear definition of the artist's personality, a revised chronology, and a balanced analysis of Cassatt's development, showing for example that she was a true Impressionist for only nine years

3 editions published in 1998 in English and held by 491 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

"Using the paintings, prints, and pastels that Cassatt created throughout her career, Mary Cassatt Reflections of Women's Lives explores the solitary, social, public, and intimate worlds inhabited by the women of the artist's family and social circle. It looks back to a more tranquil age celebrating with Cassatt the richness of the realm of women. Quatations from contemporary authors such as Edith Wharton and Henry James add further insight into this domestic world."--Jacket

Mary Cassatt by Griselda Pollock( Book )

8 editions published in 2005 in English and held by 241 WorldCat member libraries worldwide

In this volume, the author examines the reasons for the general lack of recognition she perceives for American painter and printmaker, Mary Cassatt (1844-1926), and also demonstrates why she feels that Cassatt should be considered one of the top Impressionists of her era. She gauges the wide variety of influences which shaped Cassatt's career, from her commitment to her early oils and pastels and her study of the techniques of the Old Masters, her exploration of modernist ideas to her later interest in the methods of Japanese print-making. Despite the tremendous diversity of her sources, Cassatt pursued one theme -- the depiction of women in all phases of their lives -- defending the portrayal of maternity and womanhood from the charges of sentimentality
