They had much in common: they shared similar tastes in art and literature, came from affluent backgrounds, had studied painting in Italy, and both were independent, never marrying. The degree of intimacy between them cannot be assessed now, as no letters survive, but it is unlikely they were in a sexual relationship, given their conservative social backgrounds and strong adherence to the prevalent notions of sexual morality at the time.[citation needed] Several of Vincent van Gogh's letters attest to Degas' sexual self-constraint.[3] Degas introduced Cassatt to pastel and engraving, both of which Cassatt quickly mastered, while for her part, Cassatt was instrumental in helping Degas sell his paintings and promoting his reputation in America.[4]
