 Childe Hassam - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
By 1882 Hassam was exhibiting publicly and had his first solo exhibition, of watercolors, at the Williams and Everett Gallery in Boston.
Having had little formal art training previously, Hassam went to Paris in 1886 to study figure drawing and painting at the Académie Julian.
But he considered the education he received there "superfluous." What had a greater influence on Hassam's work was the art he was exposed to in the city's museums and galleries, especially the works of the Impressionists.

 Marblehead Magazine Childe Hassam
Hassam became leader of the Ten American Painters and for the next decade artists of this group held their own exhibitions throughout the country.
The artist is Frederick Childe Hassam and the sketch he sold to the Messenger is that panoramic view of the town of Marblehead which became so familiar to generations of townspeople over the years.
Actually, he was named "Childe" after the surname of a maternal uncle and the "Hassam" was a dissertation of the family name of Horsham, his ancestors of that name having come to Boston in the early 18th century from Sussex, England.

 Childe Hassam: Impressionist in the West
Hassam's interest in painting the varied landscapes of the nation was quintessentially American, and it aligned him philosophically with his predecessors, the painters of the Hudson River School.
Hassam was a highly prolific artist with an extensive oeuvre encompassing prints, drawings, and both watercolor and oil paintings.
Hassam often identified himself as an explorer, calling himself "the Marco Polo of painters." He also liked to claim that he was the first artist to paint the landscape of Oregon, particularly the Oregon desert.

 The New Yorker: The Critics: The Art World
Hassam was a force on the American art scene throughout most of his prodigiously prolific, half-century career.
Hassam spoils, for me, an otherwise wonderful semi-pointillist painting, from 1898, of a governess shepherding two little girls in Central Park by giving her head the “charming” tilt of a fashion-plate model.
(“Old Hassam has been off on a bat for three weeks but is all right again,” a friend wrote in a letter in 1904.) He and his wife spent the years 1886-89 in Paris, where Hassam studied with prominent academic painters and fastidiously shunned anything that smacked of bohemia.

 Prints and drawings demonstrate museum's crucial role in American Impressionist Hassam's career
Childe Hassam, generally considered to be the foremost American Impressionist, is a familiar name to art lovers, but less well known is the close affiliation he had with Carnegie Museum of Art.
Many of the 72 drawings, etchings and lithographs in "Childe Hassam: Prints and Drawings from the Collection," the glowing inaugural exhibition in the Carnegie's newly renovated Works on Paper Gallery, are from the 60 donated to the museum in 1940 by Hassam's widow in recognition of his close relationship with the museum.
Hassam (1859-1935) was first employed by a Boston wood engraver and later worked as an illustrator before turning to painting.

 American Impressionism: Childe Hassam - NGA
In Paris, Hassam studied figure painting with Lucien Dorcet, Gustave Boulanger, and Jules-Joseph Lefebvre at the Académie Julian, and exhibited his work at the Salons of 1887 and 1888.
In 1883 Hassam traveled to Great Britain, Holland, Spain, and Italy, where he produced a large number of watercolors that were exhibited at the Williams and Everett Gallery in Boston later that year.
A prolific and industrious artist, Hassam painted numerous scenes of both the city and the countryside.

 Hassam, Childe on Encyclopedia.com
With their flickering light and airy palette, Hassam's sprightly landscapes, cityscapes, and interiors show the strong influence of late 19th-century French painting, and he is probably the best known of America's impressionists.

 Frederick Childe Hassam
Hassam took to painting in brilliant color with touches of pure pigment, and his works are distinctive for their freshness and clear luminous atmosphere.
Regarding the posting on Frederick Childe Hassam, Judy Balch reports: "Those in the NYC area (or thinking of visiting) might be interested to know that the Metropolitan Museum of Art has mounted a Hassam retrospective that will be up until September 12.
Scenes of New York life remained his favorite subject matter, but he also painted landscapes of New England and rural New York that, with their intense blue skies, lush foliage, and shimmering white light, became quite popular.

 Boston.com / News / Local / N.H. / American impressionist Childe Hassam captured mutable nature
Hassam started out as a watercolor artist and lithographer and then adopted oil painting as well.
Altogether Hassam finished about 80 paintings in the Northwest -- many of them landscapes, but also portraits and still-lifes, said associate curator of the Portland Art Museum, Margaret Bullock.
Barbara Weinberg, curator of American paintings and sculpture at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, said Hassam painted the West because he had a curiosity about the world, sought adventure and was always looking for new marketing opportunities.

 Childe Hassam - Artist Painting Prices, Art Appraisal, Artist Paintings [AskART.com]
Born in Dorchester, Massachusetts, Childe Hassam became one of America's most noted Impressionist painters, but he never labelled himself in that way asserting he was more interested in the emotional content of his paintings than the technique of applying color.
In 1899 Hassam settled in New York where he was a founder of the Ten American Painters, a group which exhibited together from 1898-1918.
Hassam is recognized worldwide as one of the most accomplished, uniquely inspired American painters.

 Haber's Art Reviews: Childe Hassam
Hassam takes art as a representation of a social scene—without divisions and with the object that give it pleasure and meaning.
Still, Hassam's conservatism and fixation on cities is his own mix, and it places him strikingly between American art's past and future.
"Childe Hassam: American Impressionist" ran at The Metropolitan Museum of Art through September 12, 2004.

 Frederick Childe Hassam
In 1886, Hassam went to Paris for three years, where he entered the Académie Julian to refine his figure technique and, outside the Académie, absorbed the influence of Impressionism, enhancing his sense of color and light.
By the mid eighties, responding to contemporary trends in landscape painting, Hassam was working with a carefully limited palette to produce evocative urban scenes, especially of gray, rainy days.

 Impressionism's American Childe
But though Hassam the man could be disagreeable, Hassam the artist was "incorrigibly joyous," wrote a New York Times critic in 1919.
Praised in his lifetime as "a painter of light and air," Childe Hassam adapted the French style of Impressionism to make vivid paintings of distinctly American subjects.
"Childe Hassam, American Impressionist" features oils, watercolors, pastels and prints culled from the painter's prolific 50-year career.

 CHILDE HASSAM 1859
Childe Hassam was the premier Impressionist painter of New York City.
Influenced by the tonalist painter, George Fuller, Hassam became well-known for his street scenes such as Rainy Day, Columbus Avenue, Boston (1885, The Toledo Museum of Art).
He went to Paris in 1886, making numerous rural and urban plein-air paintings that put him in the center of the emerging American Impressionist brotherhood.

 Art/Museums: The Cos Cob Art Colony, Impressionists on the Connecticut Shore at the National Academy of Design
Hassam probably experimented with more different styles than any other American painter over his long career and is perhaps best known for his urban scenes, most notably a series depicting flags on Fifth Avenue in New York.
Twachtman, Hassam and Weir resigned from the Society of American Artists in 1898 to form with seven of their friends the Ten American Paintings group and William Merritt Chase became a member when Twachtman died in 1902.
While relatively small in terms of the numbers of active artists, Cos Cob is distinguished by the stature of its artists, Childe Hassam, John H. Twachtman, Theodore Robinson and Julian Alden Weir.

The Florence Griswold Museum, which celebrates Hassam and other artists who studied in Old Lyme, has now restored the painting and is putting it on public view Saturday at the site where it was born.
In 1905, the father of American impressionism, Childe Hassam, painted "June," a mysterious picture of three nude women among the blooms of pink mountain laurel alongside the Lieutenant River, near Florence Griswold's rooming house.
The painting will be part of three exhibits at the Griswold Museum, where Hassam began painting in 1903.

 Childe Hassam
While Hassam's French connection was recognized so early in his career that any reference to Claude Monet became an annoyance to him, impressionism was but one of three strong currents flowing through his art.
Two others surged up earlier: popular culture made familiar through Hassam's work as an illustrator; and lessons of early nineteenth century British landscape painting, reinforced by the artistic leanings of Boston during the 1860s and 1870s, and furthered by Hassam's travels to England in the 1880s.
He has a way of taking his own where he finds it, and thus he leaves the stamp of his personality on localities where he has worked...

He studied in Paris under Jules Lefebvre from late 1886 to the summer of 1889, became active in artists' organizations throughout the United States, and in 1897 was instrumental in establishing Ten American Painters, a group of American impressionists who seceded from the Society of American Artists because of its conservative politics.

Watercolors and a small oil completed between 1887 and 1889 foretell his interest in flag paintings, and in 1910 Hassam depicted crowds celebrating Bastille Day in Paris's flag-decorated rue Danou.

Hassam obviously had a lot of talent but he produced too much work because he depended totally on sales to provide his living.

 Worcester Art Museum - The Breakfast Room, Winter Morning
The idealized representation of a modern woman of leisure captured during an introspective moment was a popular subject for American artists at the turn of the century.
In The Breakfast Room the form of the faceless subject is one of several elements- including the seemingly mundane silhouette of the window, the vase of flowers, and the bowl of fruit- that the artist used to balance his asymmetrical composition.
About 1910 Hassam, one of America's foremost Impressionists, began the "New York Window" series, a group of paintings depicting a contemplative woman seated before a curtained window.

 An Island Garden, by Celia Thaxter, 1894, 1895, illustrated by Childe Hassam
But I love him still, though sadly he torments me. I have adored his fresh music ever since I was a child, and I only laugh as he sits on the fence watching me with his bright black eyes; there is something quaintly comical and delightful about him, and he sings like a friendly angel.
Ever since I could remember anything, flowers have been like dear friends to me, comforters, inspirers, powers to uplift and to cheer.
A lonely child, living on the lighthouse island ten miles away from the mainland, every blade of grass that sprang out of the ground, every humblest weed, was precious in my sight, and I began a little garden when not more than five years old.
