About the piece
Painted in 1902 during his time at the Cos Cob art colony, Childe Hassam’s 'Oyster Sloop, Cos Cob' is a quintessential example of American Impressionism. The composition balances the vertical lines of the ship's mast with the warm, horizontal volumes of the coastal buildings, all rendered with the artist's characteristic flickered brushwork and a sun-drenched palette.
