CHILDE HASSAM (1859 – 1935)
ART: ::: ILLUSTRATOR :::
A son of Boston's Dorchester. He began his art as an illustrator-engraver for books, newspapers and magazines. He studied abroad where he rubbed elbows with Monet and Renoir and returned to Boston where he made a name for himself as an upstart with his renewed confidence. It was in New York where he really started finding his comfort zone as he emerged as important figure in American Impressionism. His prominence landed him at the World's Columbian Exposition in Chicago in 1893.
