What are considered to be Morisot's most significant contributions to visual art?
1 Answer

Here are some things that may be considered Morisot's most significant contributions to visual art. First, Berthe Morisot helped to further the Impressionist movement with her paintings that featured soft, loose brushstrokes. Later artists also drew inspiration from her depictions of light and shadow, as well as her tendency to portray everyday domestic scenes in such a way as to capture the emotional state of her subjects. In addition, she is considered a trailblazer because she was one of the few female artists to achieve success in Impressionism. Explore a collection of Berthe Morisot art on 1stDibs.
