The Boating Party

By Mary Cassatt

Author Award for May 2023

One of the few women to find success during the Post-Impressionist movement, Mary Cassatt painted "The Boating Party" when she was 49 years old. The abstract geometry and atypical angles found within the painting were considered bold choices in her time.

Prior to painting, Cassatt had visited a Japanese print exhibition in Paris, and like many Post-Impressionist painters, Japanese artworks influenced her own immensely. Cassatt did much to bring French avant-garde art to her home country of the United States, and "The Boating Party" was the centerpiece of her exhibition there.

Year: 1893
Medium: Oil on canvas
Location: National Gallery of Art, Washington, D.C.
