'''Frederick Childe Hassam''' (1859 – 1935) was an American [[Impressionist]] [[painter]].
<blockquote>
On his second trip to Europe in 18861887, Hassam had been among the first Americans to embrace [[French]] impressionism. With his New Englander's worship of order, however, he consistently subjected his compositions and brushstrokes to a geometric rigor. Hassam even claimed, somewhat dubiously, "I have to de-bunk the idea that I use dots of color, so called, or what is known as Impressionism." [http://www.nga.gov/collection/gallery/gg70/gg70-30115.html]
</blockquote>
Hassam was a prolific artist with more than 3,000 paintings.
