William Merritt Chase (1849–1916), The Boat Harbor (Gowanus Pier), ca. 1888
Oil on paper mounted on Masonite. Gift of the Elie and Sarah Hirschfeld Collection, Scenes of New York City, 2020.35.1
Does this look like Gowanus? Chase transforms one of the most polluted areas of nineteenth-
century Brooklyn into a lyrical landscape. Typical of Tonalism, his painting uses softly brushed
and subtle hues to evoke music and mood.
