Cassatt’s color palette
Nine colors from three of Mary Cassatt’s color prints. Free for Procreate, Adobe and print.
In 1891 Mary Cassatt made a set of ten color prints after Japanese woodblock prints she had seen in Paris. These three share soft pinks, camels and creams, with one cool blue in each.
