Portrait of Mme Boursier and Her Daughter is a 1873 oil by Berthe Morisot, a Impressionism work, held at Brooklyn Museum.
This painting shows a mother and daughter sitting together. The mother is wearing a dark dress and a hat with a white feather. The daughter is wearing a blue dress. They are sitting in front of a table with a vase on it. The background of the painting is a bit blurry, but it looks like they are in a room with a window. The mother is looking at the viewer, while the daughter is looking down. The painting has a soft, gentle quality to it. The colors are muted, and the brushstrokes are smooth. It's a quiet, intimate moment between a mother and daughter. You can find more paintings like this at the Brooklyn Museum.
