A demolished man. A heartbroken woman. And the intense love that will rebuild them both. The highly anticipated and epic conclusion to the Chasing Red duology. "Red," Caleb whispered. "Do you know how I felt when you left me?" I looked into his eyes. The emotion I saw in them, the intensity, and the tenderness filled up my throat. "I felt ruined. Because, Red, every time you break me apart, you put me back together. And I always come out better than before." "So," he cupped my face, stroking my cheek with his thumb. "Ruin me."

Avec William Merritt Chase (1849.1926), nous sommes au cœur de l’art romantique et académique, l’époque de l’impressionnisme en somme. Aux Etats-Unis, nous baignons en peinture avec Cassatt, Sargent (pour lequel on le compare beaucoup pour ne pas le dénoncer comme honnête « imitateur ») ou ce cher Whistler avec lequel on pourrait lui trouver parfois quelques affinités dans les touches « japonisantes » (ils étaient amis par ailleurs). On le dit également beaucoup influencé par le peintre belge Alfred Stevens. Eclectique, prolifique sont aussi des qualités qu’on lui a largement attribué car cet artiste américain était capable de tout peindre : portraits, nus, scènes du quotidien, paysages, natures mortes, dans des tonalités dépouillées ou luxuriantes, sombres ou colorées selon le thème. Il y en a pour tous les goûts. William M.C. savait aussi travailler sur tout type de supports (huile, pastel, encre). ::: On lui reconnait deux formes essentielles de palettes et d’inspirations selon deux périodes de sa vie : la première rayonne de portraits élégants, style étudié à l’Académie de Munich entre 1872-1877. La seconde, suite aux années 1890, à des scènes de Long Island inspirées de l’impressionnisme français qui ont aussi largement contribué à sa réputation et son basculement notoire pour l’impressionnisme. ::: Il y aurait encore deux trois petites choses à retenir de son parcours : il fut président de la Society of American Artists (dont il démissionnera en 1902), il deviendra membre du groupe dissident des Dix –The Ten) après la mort de John Henry Twachtman. ::: Et enfin à noter que William Merritt Chase fut aussi le professeur de l’illustre Edward Hopper (1882-1967). ₣.w """""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""""" With William Merritt Chase (1849.1926), we are at the heart of academic and romantic art, the era of Impressionism in fact.

It also says much influenced by the Belgian painter Alfred Stevens. Eclectic, prolific are also qualities that he has been widely attributed for this American artist was able to paint everything: portraits, nudes, scenes from everyday life, landscapes, still lifes, in tones skinned or lush, dark or colored depending on the theme . There's something for everyone. William C. knew also work on any type of media (oil, pastel, ink). He recognizes two basic forms of pallets and inspirations into two periods of his life: the first portrait radiates elegant style studied at the Munich Academy between 1872-1877. The second, following 1890's scenes of Long Island, inspired by French Impressionism who also contributed to its reputation and notorious for tipping Impressionism. There would be two or three things to remember from his career: he was president of the Society of American Artists (which he resigned in 1902), he will join the splinter group of the Ten The Ten) after the death of John Henry Twachtman. ::: And finally, note that William Merritt Chase was also the teacher of the famous Edward Hopper (1882-1967). ::::::::::::: ::: William Merritt Chase Study of a Girl in a Japanese dress ©
