William Chase: 191 Paintings and Drawings

ByMaria Tsaneva

William Merritt Chase was an American painter, notorious as a supporter of Impressionism and also fonder of the Chase School. He worked in all media but was excellent in pastel drawing. He as well created a lot of watercolor paintings and etchings. Highly proficient in pastel as well as oils, Chase is perhaps best known for his portraits, including some of the most important people of his time and members of his own family. In addition to painting portraits, he began painting landscapes in an impressionist manner. Chase was a member of the Ten (Ten American Painters), and also devoted much of his time to teaching, first at his New York studio, than at the Students League. His students included Marsden Hartley, Charles Demuth , Edward Hopper , Georgia O'Keeffe and Charles Sheeler.
