Afternoon Tea Party is a 1890 ink by Mary Cassatt, a Impressionism work, held at National Gallery of Art.
Two women sit at a table with teacups and plates. One holds a cup, the other looks away. The room is dim, with soft light from a window. Chairs and a teapot fill the space, but the faces are simple lines. The artist used loose strokes to sketch the scene. It’s not smooth—it looks like quick marks on paper.
