Childe Hassam
1859 -1935
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. He also
completed over 350 etchings and drypoints and about 45 lithographs,
most of them after he was 56 years old. Watercolor was another
specialty, and Hassam was one of the founders of the New York
Water Color Society.
