Lionel Walden | Les Docks de Cardiff, 1894

"I docks di Cardiff" è un dipinto del pittore Americano Lionel Walden (1861-1933), conservato al Musée d’Orsay che ci documenta il cambiamento delle città a seguito della rivoluzione industriale.

Le stazioni ferroviarie e le locomotive a vapore avevano subito attratto i pittori, pensiamo a Turner e poi alla serie che vi dedicò Monet.

Walden dipinge la ferrovia presso il porto di Cardiff, città del Galles che nel secondo ottocento ebbe un incredibile sviluppo demografico.

Berthe Morisot | Dahlias, 1876

La maggior parte dei dipinti della Morisot include scene domestiche di famiglia, bambini, donne e fiori, raffiguranti com'era la vita delle donne alla fine del XIX secolo.

Invece di ritrarre lo spazio pubblico e la società, Morisot preferiva scene private ed intime.

Ciò riflette le restrizioni culturali della sua classe e del suo genere in quel momento.

Come la sua collega impressionista Mary Cassatt, si è concentrata sulla vita domestica e sui ritratti in cui poteva usare la famiglia e gli amici personali come modelli, tra cui sua figlia Julie e sua sorella Edma.
