The Picture Book (No. 1)

Mary Cassatt, ca. 1901

The image shows a close-up view of two individuals' upper bodies. The person on the right is slightly turned, with their head close to the head of the person on the left. Both have their eyes closed. The person on the right has styled back hair, while the person on the left has shoulder-length hair. They are wearing clothes with high necklines and appear to be holding an object between them. The background is plain, and the edges of the image are framed, directing attention to the pair's serene expressions and close contact.
