EDITORS COMMENTS
Windy Day, Paris, 1889" is a captivating oil painting by Frederick Childe Hassam that beautifully captures the essence of a bustling capital city in the late nineteenth century. The scene depicts a lively street in Paris, with a large group of people going about their daily activities amidst strong gusts of wind. Hassam's impressionistic style adds an ethereal quality to the artwork, as he skillfully portrays the movement and energy of both the people and their surroundings. The artist's use of vibrant colors and loose brushstrokes creates a sense of dynamism and immediacy. The composition showcases various elements that define urban life - towering structures, busy streets, and diverse individuals from different walks of life. Men and women are seen standing or walking against the wind, their postures reflecting resilience in face of natural phenomena. The painting offers us a glimpse into late nineteenth-century Parisian society - its fashion trends, architectural marvels, and daily routines. It also highlights Hassam's ability to capture not only physical landscapes but also human emotions through his art. This print allows us to appreciate Hassam's mastery even more closely. With its rich details preserved on panel through Christie Images' lens, we can immerse ourselves in this windy day scene as if we were there ourselves. A true testament to American Impressionism at its finest.
