The Parrish Art Museum, on Long Island's East End, holds one of the
largest public collections of William Merritt Chase in the United
States: over forty paintings and works on paper, and a wealth of
archival photographs and documents. This new volume features 30 of
the artist's most important paintings and works on paper, including
his early "Still Life with Fruit" (1871), works from the famous New
York park scenes series, notably "Park in Brooklyn" (c. 1887);
major studio paintings from the 1880s, such as "The Blue Kimono"
(c. 1888); and of course, the paintings made during his summers in
Long island's Shinnecock Hills, including "The Bayberry Bush" (c.
1895). It also includes many family photographs taken during summer
spent in Shinnecock Hills, Long Island, where Chase founded, and
taught at, the Summer School of Art. There are essays covering the
key influences on Chase's art and his early career in Munich and
his work in Paris and Madrid.
