Chatou near Bougival 1889

"Chatou near Bougival" is a watercolor painting by American artist Childe Hassam, completed in 1889. The piece depicts a serene landscape featuring a river with a small boat in the foreground, a distant village on the horizon, and a hazy sky above. Hassam's use of subtle brushstrokes and soft color palettes creates a sense of tranquility and atmospheric depth, characteristic of his Impressionistic style. The painting captures the tranquil beauty of the French countryside, a theme often explored in Hassam's later work.
