Introducing our ‘In the Studio with Mary Cassatt’ candle, a tribute to the iconic artist and her 1882 painting, "Lydia Seated on the Porch, Crocheting." With notes of lavender, eucalyptus, and green leaves, this candle aims to capture the atmosphere of the painting.

Cassatt's studio practice was marked by meticulous attention to detail and a keen eye for capturing the subtleties of human expression. She often depicted her subjects in relaxed, unguarded moments, infusing her paintings with a sense of intimacy and warmth. Cassatt's use of light and color, influenced by her Impressionist contemporaries, imbued her works with a luminous quality that set them apart.

Throughout her life, Cassatt remained deeply committed to her art, continuously pushing the boundaries of traditional gender roles and societal expectations. Her paintings not only captured the beauty of everyday life but also served as a powerful statement on the importance of female representation in the arts.
