Her knees are angled slightly to our left, and her hands rest in her lap. She has a round face and smooth, lightly flushed cheeks. She has brown eyes under arched brows, a delicate, snub nose, and her rose-pink lips are closed. Her hair, which is painted with broad strokes of caramel brown and moss green, is parted on one side and pulled smoothly back, presumably tied behind her head. Tendrils fall over her shoulders. Her dress is gathered around her neck and tied with a bow at the back. The loose sleeves fall to just below her elbows, and the dress is belted around the waist. A curving swipe of canary-yellow paint could be a buckle at the front. The fabric of the dress is painted with long, visible strokes of shell and rose pink, butter yellow, and ivory white, and a few touches of sage green and periwinkle blue for shadows. She wears a ring on the middle finger of her right hand. The space around her is loosely painted with strokes of electric and cobalt blue, with unpainted canvas visible at some of the edges. To our left, over the girl's shoulder, a wooden bird cage holds an emerald-green parakeet. The bird is streaked with royal blue along its back, and the area around its hooked beak is apple red. The cage has a mint-green bow and ribbon along the top. The artist signed the painting in green on the lower right corner: “Berthe Morisot.”",{"_296":420,"_298":421,"_300":422},"https://img.ochreeditions.com/m/1518.jpg?dl=1","/art/the-artist-s-daughter-with-a-parakeet-nga-46525","/galleries/style/impressionism/the-artist-s-daughter-with-a-parakeet-nga-46525",{"_292":293,"_294":295},{"_225":415,"_125":416,"_286":417},{"_277":412,"_279":413,"_281":414,"_282":396},66.60234374999999,80.6,51.602343749999996,{"_288":225,"_123":418,"_154":419,"_140":97},{"_288":125,"_123":289,"_154":290,"_140":291},{"_288":286,"_123":167,"_154":166,"_140":169},"artist/berthe-morisot","More by Berthe Morisot","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1518/480.jpg","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1518/960.jpg","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1518/1920.jpg","nga","national-gallery-of-art","National Gallery of Art, Washington","Washington, DC",{"_312":440,"_314":441},{"_312":438,"_314":439},{"_312":436,"_314":437},{"_312":434,"_314":435},{"_312":432,"_314":433},"#a99067",0.1675,"#c5946a",0.1872,"#d4b58c",0.1897,"#9e9a80",0.2113,"#819086",0.2443,"Berthe Morisot","berthe-morisot","French, 1841–1895",1895,"Bourges","Paris","Morisot studied with Corot and was a founding member of the Impressionist group, exhibiting in seven of its eight exhibitions.","roses-in-a-vase-cma-120286","Roses in a Vase",{"_42":505,"_222":506,"_326":507,"_328":329,"_330":387,"_332":508,"_334":509,"_335":510,"_336":511,"_140":81},"c. 1890","oil on fabric","Unframed: 25.5 x 34 cm (10 1/16 x 13 3/8 in.)",34,25.5,1.377075739165654,[490,491,492,493,494],{"_221":486,"_222":487,"_42":488,"_305":489},"Courtesy of the Cleveland Museum of Art","1941.14","Pierre-Auguste Renoir painted this in about 1890, aged about 49.

The scene and dancers are loosely painted so many features are indistinct. All the women have light skin and dark brown hair. Each pale, robins’ egg-blue costume has a low-cut, tightly fitting, sleeveless bodice and a full skirt. Dabs of off white, teal, and blue suggest flowers lining the deep U of the neckline at the front and down the back of each bodice. Closest to us and nearly brushing the edges of the lower right corner of the canvas, one dancer sits on the end of a wooden bench and leans down between her legs, her feet widely planted. She rests her torso on an elbow folded onto one knee as she reaches for her left foot, farther from us, with her other hand. Her hair is pulled up and her face, looking downward, is deep in shadow. Sitting behind her on the bench, to our left, a second dancer lifts her right leg, toe pointing, as she pulls on her pale pink tights. Her other leg stretches straight, pointed toe brushing the floor, in front of her. This woman’s hair hangs loose around her shoulders. The pair is brightly lit from a source to our right, and an arched area of electric blue and mustard yellow behind them is difficult to interpret. The floor, which takes up about two-thirds of the composition, is painted with dabs of teal blue, pale fuchsia pink, and caramel brown. It leads us back to the upper left corner of the painting where four more four ballerinas stand in a line. The pair to our left stands with their backs to us, facing the wall with their right legs raised to shoulder height, toes pointed. The pair to our right faces us. They also stand with their right legs raised, creating a wide angle with their standing legs. All four ballerinas bend their arms gently at the elbow, and some tip their heads toward the raised legs. The rightmost dancer is illuminated by a pair of French doors at the back corner, at the top center of the painting. The wall behind the bench is streaked with mint green over honey brown, and the wall at the back of the room is leather brown. The visible, soft brushstrokes give the image a blurred, ethereal appearance in the dimmed studio. The artist signed the painting in the lower left corner, “Degas.”",{"_296":1094,"_298":1095,"_300":1096},"https://img.ochreeditions.com/m/1335.jpg?dl=1","/art/before-the-ballet-nga-1158","/galleries/style/impressionism/before-the-ballet-nga-1158",{"_292":293,"_294":295},{"_225":1091,"_125":1092,"_286":1093},{"_277":1088,"_279":1089,"_281":1072,"_282":1090},103.9,53.589892578124996,38.589892578124996,{"_288":225,"_123":596,"_154":597,"_140":75},{"_288":125,"_123":289,"_154":290,"_140":291},{"_288":286,"_123":167,"_154":166,"_140":169},"https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1335/480.jpg","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1335/960.jpg","https://img.ochreeditions.com/a/1335/1920.jpg",{"_312":1110,"_314":1111},{"_312":1108,"_314":1109},{"_312":1106,"_314":1107},{"_312":1104,"_314":1105},{"_312":1102,"_314":1103},"#857e66",0.0737,"#535e4f",0.1133,"#423113",0.125,"#605339",0.2455,"#423a2d",0.4425,{"_1113":-5,"_1114":1115,"_1116":1117,"_1118":8,"_1119":1120,"_1121":8},"user","csrf","4158a47e745309ce55cdfba8c332868705b1b3d3","cartCount",0,"dropLive","legal",[1122,1123,1124,1125,1126,1127,1128,1129,1130,1131,1132,1133],"uploadsEnabled",{"_222":1156,"_20":1157},{"_222":1154,"_20":1155},{"_222":1152,"_20":1153},{"_222":1150,"_20":1151},{"_222":1148,"_20":1149},{"_222":1146,"_20":1147},{"_222":1144,"_20":1145},{"_222":1142,"_20":1143},{"_222":1140,"_20":1141},{"_222":1138,"_20":1139},{"_222":1136,"_20":1137},{"_222":1134,"_20":1135},"credits","Open-Access Credits","accessibility","Accessibility Statement","vulnerability-disclosure","Vulnerability Disclosure Policy","own-photo","Printing Your Own Photo","copyright","Copyright and DMCA Policy","agents","Agent & API Terms","acceptable-use","Acceptable Use Policy","cookies","Cookie Policy","privacy","Privacy Policy","limited-editions","Limited Editions and Certificates","sale","Terms of Sale","terms","Terms of Use"]
