Through the Eyes of the Artist

Mary Cassatt

Art historian Felicia Zavarella Stadelman presents her series on the lives and works of beloved artists.

Cassatt influenced Impressionism not only as an artist, but also had an important role in sponsoring and financially promoting Impressionist art. Mary was single handedly responsible for introducing the paintings of the French Impressionists to the United States. Her paintings of women and children focused on a gaze or gesture, a bond between the models and the viewer.

Registration required. Sponsored by the Friends of the Beachwood Library.

Contact the Beachwood Branch at 216-831-6868 for more information.

About the branch

The Beachwood Branch first opened to the public on October 31, 1982. At the time, it was the first branch in the CCPL system to have an automated circulation system. Located just a few hundred yards from the Maltz Museum of Jewish Heritage, the branch offers a drive-up window where customers can pick up requested materials, dedicated spaces for kids and teens, and a beautiful outdoor reading garden.
