チャイルド・ハッサム

1859 – 1935

アメリカを代表する印象派の画家であり、「10人会(The Ten)」の創設メンバーの一人。

White rocks overlook the shimmering blue-green sea under the dazzling sunlight. A young woman in a white dress gently places a hand on her wide-brimmed hat, quietly gazing at the sea.

This beautiful painting captures a scene from a vibrant and popular resort where Childe Hassam, a master of American Impressionism, spent his summer vacations almost every year.

However, in reality, contrary to the serene atmosphere depicted, the island at that time was teeming with a "chaotic crowd" of tourists and cultural figures.
