Hassam, (Frederick) Childe

Hassam, (Frederick) Childe
born Oct. 17, 1859, Boston, Mass., U.S.
died Aug. 27, 1935, East Hampton, N.Y.

U.S. painter and printmaker.

He studied in Boston and Paris before settling in New York City. From 1898 to 1918 he exhibited together with a group of New York and Boston painters known as The Ten, who became the foremost proponents of U.S. Impressionism. Urban life was his favourite subject, but his landscapes of New England and rural New York also became popular. Paintings such as Washington Arch, Spring (1890) are characterized by clear, luminous atmosphere and brilliant colour. He also produced some 400 etchings and lithographs.
