Young Girl at a Window

On modernity's balcony: a girl, a city. A young girl leaning on a balcony, c.1883–1884 (100.3 × 64.7 cm, NGA Washington, Corcoran 2014.79.9). Window and balcony: the threshold where Cassatt's women conquer the outdoors.

This work appears in the Musée d'Orsay exhibition 'Mary Cassatt. Being Independent' (6 October 2026 – 31 January 2027).
