THE ART OF TRANQUILITY
THROUGH AN ARTIST’S EYES
Are you sometimes nostalgic for childhood? Do you remember the peaceful transition between consciousness and sleep, leaving the waking world behind until the next morning. Drowsy, weary, nearly dreaming, lulled by the comfort of a warm bath and a familiar lap. American Impressionist Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) immortalized those special moments in works like Mother and Child, a theme which has earned her international fame.
