Cevap:The American artist Mary Cassatt was celebrated for her intimate portraits of mothers and children, which departed from traditional European portraiture. Her famous painting *The Child's Bath*, which she completed in 1893【,】 showcases her mastery of Japanese woodblock print techniques through its bold lines and unique perspective. By emphasizing domestic scenes, Cassatt helped introduce Impressionist ideas to a broader American audience.
Cevap
A comma (,) is required to close the nonessential relative clause.
The clause 'which she completed in 1893' is a nonessential relative clause describing the painting *The Child's Bath*. To correctly set off this nonessential element, the punctuation must be symmetrical. Since the clause is introduced by a comma after the painting's title, it must also be closed with a comma before the main verb 'showcases'.
