Print shows a woman standing before a large mirror; she is wearing a dress, which another woman is adjusting or marking for a proper fit.
Caption label from exhibit "Floating World," Japan and the West, Artistic Cross-Fertilization section: Impressionist Translation. The Fitting is from a series of ten color prints by Mary Cassatt (1844-1926), which are considered among the landmarks of the aesthetic called "Japonisme." After seeing an exhibition of Japanese prints in 1890 at the École des Beaux-Arts, Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) wrote to her friend and colleague Berthe Morisot (1841-1895): "Seriously, you must not miss that. You who want to make color prints you couldn't dream of anything more beautiful. I dream of it and don't think of anything else but color on copper ... . You must see the Japanese--come as soon as you can."
