Original Description
Addison Thomas Millar's Mrs. William Merritt Chase In Chase's Studio (c. 1888) captures an intimate moment between artist and muse, suffused with golden light and quiet elegance. The painting portrays Alice Gerson Chase—wife of the renowned American Impressionist William Merritt Chase—seated gracefully in her husband's iconic Tenth Street Studio, surrounded by his eclectic collection of objets d'art. Millar's brushwork channels Chase's own Impressionist-inspired realism, balancing loose, luminous strokes with meticulously rendered textures, from the sheen of silk skirts to the patina of antique furnishings. Historically significant, this work offers a rare glimpse into the domestic-artistic symbiosis of Gilded Age creatives, while exemplifying how American artists adapted European Impressionist techniques to bourgeois interiors. Its duality—both portrait and studio scene—places it at the crossroads of documentary realism and aesthetic idealism.
For decorators, this artwork lends sophistication to studies, libraries, or formal sitting rooms. Its ideal 24x30" size allows it to command attention without overwhelming mid-sized walls—consider flanking it with Tiffany-style sconces to amplify its warm undertones. The painting's rich palette of amber, cream, and earthy greens pairs beautifully with Mission-style oak furniture or Arts & Crafts wallpapers featuring botanical motifs. In contemporary spaces, try floating it in a slim gilt frame against navy-blue wainscoting for a modern-classic contrast, or group it with smaller still-life sketches to create a "collector’s corner." Avoid stark white surrounds; instead, echo its background tones with Farrow & Ball’s "French Gray" or "London Stone" for seamless cohesion. The scene’s contemplative mood makes it particularly fitting for private offices or reading nooks, where its quiet narrative energy fosters creativity.
