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, sharing tea. One wears a dark coat and blue hat, holding a cup. The other sits in a light dress, watching. The table has blue cups, a teapot, and a vase with flowers. The room looks simple, with plain walls and a window showing trees. The artist used loose lines and soft colors. This style was common in the late 1800s. Look up etching to see how artists like this made prints.
