Painting with an * means that it was featured in the animation in the show.

The Cradle*

"Subtle variations of light is still more accentuated in the masterly canvas called 'The Cradle,' .... dating from 1873, in which the artist has again represented her sister, Madame Pontillon, sitting near her baby which one glimpses, lying asleep, through the mulin curtains. Showing here a visual sensibility of the most amazing delicacy, she has managed to exalt the intimate little scene by enveloping it in the purest and gentlest light, and by creating a delightful harmonic contrast between the cold, slightly busih whiteness of the alcove curtainsm which one catches sight of at the far end of the room, and the richer paleness of those of the cradle which in the foreground are warmed by a soft yellow light. This enchanting opposition is very finely observed and is discreteley enforced by a few happy accents of colors: here a pale rose galoon trimming the cradle curtain; there at the top of its canopy a vivid rose coloured silk ribbon andwered very sptly by an opportune spot of blue. No longer is a trace to be found of any influence, of any formula intervening."
