Strawberry Tea Set 1912

"Strawberry Tea Set" (1912) by American Impressionist painter Childe Hassam, depicts a woman examining a teacup from a set of delicate, floral-patterned porcelain. The scene, set against a background of soft, sun-drenched curtains, captures the intimate domesticity of the early 20th century. The woman's pose, the intricate details of the tea set, and the light-drenched atmosphere evoke a sense of tranquility and refined elegance. The Impressionistic style, with its loose brushstrokes and emphasis on light, enhances the sense of immediacy and captures the fleeting beauty of the moment.
