Marie Bracquemond (1840–1916) was one of the few women to make her mark within the Impressionist circle, alongside Berthe Morisot and Mary Cassatt. Though initially praised for her talent, she eventually gave up her artistic career after marrying the printmaker Félix Bracquemond. Why? Drawing on archives, contemporary accounts, and critical writings, Stéphanie Cantarutti traces a life marked by silence and withdrawal. This text restores the legacy of a remarkable artist whom history has long overlooked. An essential rediscovery, at a time when women artists are finally claiming their rightful place in the narrative of art.
