Studio Interior (c.1882). William Merritt Chase (American, 1849-1916). Oil on canvas. Brooklyn Museum.Chase’s paintings of the studio suggest his belief in a complete and passionate engagement with art. Characterized by rich colors and lively brushwork, the paintings appealed to an American audience increasingly under the sway of the British Aesthetic Movement, which above all championed the artistic appointment of interiors with a rich ensemble of decorated surfaces. -- source link
