Berthe Morisot Au bord du lac [1883] Paris Musée Marmottan

The most interesting artist of her generation has been not so much underrated in standard art history as not rated at all, Peter Schjeldahl writes.

Morisot was a remarkable painter and a figurehead of Impressionism. Her work has been described as being intimate and having a 'feminine charm'.

Berthe Morisot (1841-1895), Le berceau (ca 1872), oil on canvas, 56 x 46 cm, Musée d'Orsay The Cradle

Berthe Morisot, Bourges 1841 - Paris 1895 Unter dem Orangenbaum - Under the orange tree (1889) The Nelson Atkins Museum of Artm Kansas City, Missouri, USA Berthe Morisot was probably the greatest female artist in the Impressionist movement and showed in all but one of the Impressionist exhibitions. This painting represents her daughter Julie (who also appears in Renoir's "Flowered Hat"), who became her favorite subject in the last two decades of her life. Julie appears in the garden of Morisot's winter home near Nice in the south of France. The setting is an exotic one with over-arching orange trees and Julie's pet green parrot in a birdcage to the left. As a well-off bourgeois woman (and therefore subject to rules of suitable public behavior), Morisot was unable to travel around Paris without an escort and, as a result, focused largely on domestic scenes.

Berthe Morisot was a founder of Impressionism, but her accomplishments were largely overlooked until now.

History books may not talk about her as much as her male contemporaries, but Berthe Morisot is a female artist who helped shape Impressionism.

Amongst the women painters in modern history, Berthe Morisot achieved a distinction equalled only by that of Mary Cassatt. Her gifts did not at once receive public recognition, but in recent years they have won more and more appreciation. She was an interesting person. Degas once said of her that she painted pictures as she made bonnets – a suggestion of the femininely instinctive and impulsive action of her talent. One source of her strength, however, was the thoroughness of her training. Her father, an official at Bourges, saw that his daughter’s tastes were genuine, and made it easy for her to develop her faculties. She and her sister Edma were sent for instruction to Paris. Edma Morisot abandoned painting when she married, but Berthe continued to work with the brush, exhibiting at the Salon. It was while she was making copies from old masters in the Louvre that she first came to know Edouard Manet. Later, Berthe became intimate with the great impressionist, modifying her style in the light of his example and developing the broad, vivid qualities for which her works are loved today. In 1874 she married Eugene Manet. Manet 1870 Repose (Portrait of Berthe Morisot), is a remarkable psychological study of a young woman. Degas, Renoir, Pissarro, and Monet frequented her house. She continued to paint, signing her pictures with the name by which she is still remembered in artistic annals. Her rank as an artist was obscured by her position as a woman of the world. She was not, it is true, a creative artist. It may even be said that she would not have made the progress that is shown in her best works, would not have given them their special character, if Manet had not been there to help her to form her style. Yet upon the groundwork that she owed to her contact with Manet she superimposed qualities of her own. There is a delicate fragrance about her art, a certain feminine subtlety and charm, through which she proved herself an individualised painter. Berthe worked a lot in Normandy, especially around Fécamp; the landscape of this area remained her preferred motif. It was one of the things that drew her closer to the future Impressionists. Berthe’s other motif was Paris. In 1872, she painted an amazing panorama of the city: View of Paris from the Trocadéro. The city stretches out below, immense and light. At the same time, Berthe was exhibiting pastels and watercolours. In these techniques she achieved definite success. The large portrait of Edma in a black dress with a background of white fabric decorated with delicate colour motifs is the work of a true master Portrait of Madame Pontillon (Paris, Louvre). But the charm of Berthe’s work is most evident in watercolours, such as The Artist’s Sister, Edma, with Her Daughter, Jeanne (Washington, D.C., National Gallery of Art) and On the Sofa (Stockholm, Nationalmuseum). In these works she lays down a light, transparent layer of paint, Blue, pink and gold reflections shimmer off the whiteness. In 1892, Eugène Manet died. He had always helped Berthe. In 1893, Morisot painted a portrait of her daughter with her dog in an interior: Julie Manet and her Greyhound Laërte. The beauty of this freely painted work illustrates the artist’s maturity and mastery. Berthe was the only one who could see Julie in this way: serious and dreamy, simultaneously modest and self-confident. On 2 March 1895, Berthe died of influenza. Renoir was painting en plein-air with Cézanne in Aix when he received the telegram announcing the death of Berthe Morisot. He put away his things and went directly to the train station. “I had the impression of being all alone in a desert,” he told his son. And, even though Renoir, Degas, and Monet still had a long life ahead of them, upon the death of Berthe Morisot the group of Impressionists started to fade away.

Morisot avea sa devina un pictor impresionist de mai mica importanta, dar un simbol pentru prezenta femeilor in avangarda artistica de al sfarsitul secolului XIX. Cand Morisot s-a decis sa studieze serios pictura, familia nu doar ca nu s-a opus, dar a sprijinit-o total. La inceput, Morisot a exersat pictand copii dupa tablouri celebre, incepand cu vechii maestri si terminand cu cei noi, avand o pasiune deosebita pentru lucrarile lui Camille Corot. La varsta de doar 20 de ani, cand stilul ei incepuse deja sa se contureze, Morisot l-a intalnit si s-a imprietenit cu Camille Corot, care la randul sau a prezentat-o altor artisti si profesori. A inceput sa lucreze in aer liber si sa realizeze mici compozitii, experimentand diverse tehnici. Prefera ca in mijlocul naturii sa faca doar schite, care serveau apoi ca punct de plecare pentru tablourile de mari dimensiuni, realizate in atelier. Participa pentru prima data la Salon in 1864, cu doua peisaje, si va fi o prezenta permanenta la aceasta expozitie oficiala pana in 1874, anul primei expozitii organizate de grupul impresionist. Il cunoaste pe Edouard Manet in 1868, iar in 1874 se casatoreste cu Eugene Manet, fratele mai mic al artistului. Il convinge pe Manet sa incerce sa lucreze in aer liber si il atrage treptat in cercul impresionist. Cu toate acestea, Manet nu se va considera niciodata un impresionist, refuzand mereu sa participe la expozitiile grupului. Doar Berthe Morisot si Camille Pissarro au participat la toate expozitiile grupului impresionist, fara a rata vreo editie. La fel ca si in cazul lui Mary Cassatt, in timpul vietii Morisot a fost incadrata in categoria artistilor "feminini" din cauza subiectelor preferate -femei, copii si scene din viata de familie. Cu toate acestea, in calitatea sa de artist impresionist, Morisot incerca sa picteze imaginile vietii cotidiene, fragmente realitatii mereu in derulare. Fiind o femeie care facea parte din inalta societate, picteaza scene din viata de familie, din statiuni de vacanta. Fara exceptie, subiectele sale sunt un echivalent al celor alese de colegii sai impresionisti. Degas, dandy-ul burghez, prefera repetitii ale trupelor de balet, curse de cai si nuduri feminine in apartamente in loc de ateliere. Claude Monet picteaza tablouri cu gradina si copiii sai sau capitele de fan din vecinatate. Pictoritele impresioniste redau pe panza mediul social in care traiesc, intr-o maniera potrivita curentului. Astazi tablourile sale se vand fiecare pentru mai multe de patru milioane de dolari.
