Little Gems

Some paintings command attention through scale. Others draw us in through intimacy.

Deer in the Wilderness by Chapin is one such little gem. Painted from the Adirondack landscapes that shaped the artist’s early career, the work captures the quiet solitude of the wilderness in an intimate format.

Though Chapin later traveled and painted across the country, he repeatedly returned to New York and remained closely connected to its artistic community. The Adirondacks, where his career began and where his life would ultimately end, remained an important part of his story.

New York, 1908.

A city in motion, captured at a moment of artistic transformation.

Abraham Walkowitz was a major proponent of American Modernism who found his subject in the streets of New York. His work brought him into the circle of Alfred Stieglitz, and by the end of the first decade of the twentieth century, Walkowitz was exhibiting at Stieglitz’s influential 291 Gallery.

New York, 1908 offers a glimpse of the city through the eyes of an artist helping to shape a new language for American art.

Summer, captured in paint.

In Children Fishing, Charles Courtney Curran transforms a quiet afternoon by the water into a timeless scene of warmth, leisure, and light. Best known for his graceful figure paintings, Curran paired a distinctly American sense of place with a technical refinement shaped by his studies in both the United States and France.

With its harmonious composition and gentle atmosphere, Children Fishing celebrates the simple pleasures of the season and the enduring appeal of the American summer.

Jane Peterson’s career was defined not by convention, but by a lifelong pursuit of beauty.

At a time when few women traveled and studied independently, Peterson sought inspiration across Europe, North Africa, and the United States, continually refining her style while remaining open to new ideas and techniques. Her paintings blend the discipline of academic training with the luminous color and expressive brushwork of Impressionism, creating works that feel both immediate and timeless.

Though she never sought the spotlight, Peterson earned widespread critical acclaim during her lifetime and established a remarkable legacy. Today, her paintings are held in the collections of The Metropolitan Museum of Art, the Brooklyn Museum, and the Philadelphia Museum of Art, among many others.

Some of the most compelling paintings are also the smallest.

Freed from the demands of scale, these intimate works often reveal an artist at their most personal. Rich in atmosphere and expression, they invite close looking and reward it in equal measure.

Arthur B. Davies’ On the Balcony is one such example. Possibly depicting one of the artist’s nieces at his home in Congers, New York, the painting reflects Davies’ characteristically poetic approach. While many members of The Eight embraced the energy of urban realism, Davies turned instead toward quiet moments of serenity and imagination.

Small in scale, yet enduring in presence, On the Balcony reminds us why little gems have long held a special place in a collector’s eye.

At the turn of the twentieth century, Childe Hassam helped define a distinctly American Impressionism by finding beauty in the country’s changing landscape.

Works such as Old Age (Excavation) reflect a period of rapid transformation, when expanding towns, industry, and suburban life reshaped the American experience. Here, a solitary laborer sits among timber and tools, while orderly homes and gardens suggest a landscape suspended between memory and progress.

Influenced by French Impressionism but deeply rooted in American subject matter, Hassam used luminous brushwork and a restrained palette to capture the atmosphere of a fleeting moment. Rather than documenting change alone, his paintings invite us to pause and consider the quiet poetry within it.
