Mother's Kiss

Mary Cassatt, 1890–1891

The image shows an adult and an infant in a relaxed, intimate pose. The adult on the left holds the infant, with their heads close together. The adult appears to be kissing or nuzzling the child's face. The adult has styled hair in an updo and wears a floral-patterned garment. The unclothed infant is nestled against the adult's chest, with short dark hair. There are no visible accessories or jewelry. The background is plain.
