Morisot’s paintings often depicted domestic scenes, landscapes, and portraits, capturing everyday life with a delicate touch and a focus on light and color. She was closely associated with artists like Édouard Manet and Claude Monet, who greatly influenced her work. Morisot’s art played a significant role in shaping the Impressionist movement, with her bold brushwork and innovative compositions challenging traditional artistic conventions. Despite facing societal barriers as a woman artist, Morisot’s talent and determination propelled her to become one of the leading figures of her generation. Her legacy continues to inspire generations of artists and admirers, cementing her place in art history as one of the most important female painters of the 19th century.
