A landmark retrospective that examines William Merritt Chase and
his lasting contribution to the history of modern art The history
of modern art owes a great debt to William Merritt Chase
(1849-1916), one of America's influential artists and educators.
Chase was a leading member of the international artistic
avant-garde and was best known for his mastery of a wide range of
subjects in oil and pastel, including figures, landscapes, urban
park scenes, interiors, and portraits. As a teacher and founder of
the Shinnecock Summer School of Art and the New York School of Art,
Chase mentored a new generation of modernists, including Edward
Hopper, Georgia O'Keeffe, and Joseph Stella. A century after his
death, the breadth and richness of Chase's career are celebrated in
this beautifully illustrated publication. Five essays by prominent
scholars of American art offer new insights into Chase's
multi-faceted artistic practice and his position in the
international cultural climate at the turn of the 20th century.
