Berthe Morisot was the organizing force behind the Impressionist group: she was the one who arranged all of their group exhibitions. A close friend of Manet and Renoir, she introduced them to the drypoint technique. With the renewal of interest in the women of the Impressionist group, Morisot's critical reputation has risen substantially, and one sign of that has been a number of recent books and museum shows dedicated to her work and to her role as the organizer of the various Impressionist exhibitions during her lifetime. In her catalogue raisonné of works published by Ambroise Vollard, Ambroise Vollard Editeur: Prints, Books, Bronzes (NY: Museum of Modern Art, 1977), Una E. Johnson summarizes the state of current knowledge about Morisot's prints. According to Una Johnson, Vollard acquired Morisot's 12 prints and had an edition, "probably small," printed. Aside from this edition, only "a few rare, early artist's proofs exist. Printer not known."
This drypoint etching by Morisot was produced in 1888 and is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art - see the link below.
