Mary Cassatt (1844-1926) is often dismissed as a sentimental painter of mothers and children, but she was in fact a pioneering modernist. Her paintings, pastels and prints are characterized by constant experimentation and variation. The only American to join the French Impressionists, Cassatt first exhibited with the group in 1879 at the invitation of Degas and quickly became a key member of the movement. In addition to depicting women at the opera, visiting friends and drinking tea, Cassatt created many images of "women's work" - knitting and needlepoint, bathing children and nursing babies. These images suggest parallels between art-making and nursing work. The exhibition calls attention to the artist's own creative process - how she used brushes, etching needles, crayon sticks and even her fingertips to create radical works of art under the guise of "feminine" subjects.

Golden Gate Park

112***09

This is a relatively large park near the Golden Gate Bridge, called Golden Gate Park. Most tourists will not go to this attraction specifically, but since we are traveling independently, we can visit it in a more relaxed manner. The environment design of this park is unparalleled and it is worth checking out.

Lombard Street

泰迪小熊

Came here on September 24, 2017.

This attraction is unique, beautiful and interesting, and is definitely one of the must-see attractions when visiting San Francisco.

Lombard Street is actually a section of Lombard Street, located between Hyde Street and Leavenworth Street. This section of the road is a steep slope, but it is designed into eight hairpin turns, and flowers are planted on both sides of the road.

If you need to take a nine-turn effect, you must stand on Leavenworth Street, which is low in terrain.

Chinese people can drive in the western United States where San Francisco is located with a translated driver&#39;s license. If you can drive in San Francisco, you might as well go and experience the feeling of driving through Lombard Street yourself.
