“Studio Interior” is an oil on canvas painting by the artist William Merritt Chase, created around the year 1879. This piece falls within the art movement of Impressionism and portrays an interior genre scene. Measuring 55.88 by 35.56 centimeters, it is currently held in a private collection.
The artwork presents a richly adorned interior space, featuring a wooden chest with intricate carvings placed centrally. Atop the chest, one can observe decorative objects, including an ornate silver teapot. The background is accentuated by a series of framed paintings which seemingly blend into the elaborate wall décor, contributing to the sense of depth and opulence. The warm, earthy color palette and the play of light and shadow convey a cozy, yet sophisticated atmosphere, characteristic of Chase’s mastery in capturing the essence of interior spaces during the Impressionist period.
