About the piece

Painted in 1913, Childe Hassam's 'The South Ledges, Appledore' is a masterwork of American Impressionism. The scene depicts a solitary figure perched upon the granite ledges of the Isles of Shoals, gazing across a sea of shimmering blues and whites rendered with the artist's signature dappled brushwork and luminous palette.
