A Summer Day 1895

"A Summer Day" is an oil painting by American artist William Merritt Chase from 1895, now on display at the Memorial Art Gallery in Rochester, New York. The painting depicts a sun-drenched landscape with a vast expanse of golden grass and a distant horizon. The brushstrokes are loose and suggestive, creating a sense of atmospheric depth and light, characteristic of Chase's Impressionistic style. Chase, known for his evocative landscapes, captures the tranquility and beauty of a summer day in the American countryside. The painting's soft hues and hazy atmosphere evoke a sense of peace and serenity.
