À beira do mar

William Merritt Chase American

ca. 1892

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 769

De 1891 até 1902, Chase foi o diretor da Escola de Arte de Verão Shinnecock Hills na cidade de Southampton, Nova Iorque. Ele dava aula dois dias por semana e passava o resto de seu tempo pintando e desfrutando da companhia de sua família. Nesta cena, mulheres e crianças relaxam na praia (provavelmente na baía de Shinnecock), um lugar ideal para o descanso em um dia perfeito. A metade superior da tela é uma vasta extensão do céu atravessado por nuvens luminosas, que fazem eco às formas brancas e brilhantes das roupas das crianças.
