William Merritt Chase Figurative Paintings

American, 1849-1916
William Merritt Chase rejected his father’s shoe business in favor of studying art professionally, training with Barton S. Hayes in Indianapolis and going abroad to the Royal Academy in Munich. His brushwork and use of light was similar to the French Impressionists, and his style of visual modelling was particularly influenced by Eduoard Manet. After he finished his studies Chase travelled to New York City and began teaching as part of the Art Students League, quickly becoming a renowned teacher. He incorporated Impressionist techniques along with his more traditional European education to create unique images imbued with the valued urbanization and expansion of New York City. Later in his life, Chase established the Chase School, which eventually was renamed the Parsons School of Design.
