<blockquote>
Childe Hassam studied and worked with the impressionists in France. Yet, his subjects are, on the whole, recognizably American... Hassam’s paintings of women and flowers are tender, respectfully distant, loving. His rocky coves and [[American Seascapes|seascapes]] tend toward bleakness. Hassam understood how sunlight worked behind the scenes, how we humans are very small inside nature. His sunbaked wildflowers seem to ripple underwater.
