About the piece

Painted in 1880, William Merritt Chase’s 'The Tenth Street Studio' captures the opulent and cluttered atmosphere of his famous New York workspace. The composition centers on a woman in a luminous white gown, providing a dramatic counterpoint to the dark, textured environment filled with paintings, textiles, and artistic curiosities that defined the late 19th-century aesthetic movement.
