CHILDE HASSAM (1859-1935). Frederick Childe Hassam was an American Impressionist painter who was developmental for the introduction of Impressionism to American collectors, dealers, and museums. He was known for his urban and coastal scenes, producing over 3,000 paintings, oils, watercolors, etchings, and lithographs over his career. He is known for his series of art called the Flag Series, having one titled The Avenue in the Rain located in The White House.ALS. 1pg. N.d. Old Lyme, Connecticut. An autograph letter signed Childe Hassam to Mr. Church. My dear Mr. Church Your letter just reached me here and I will send out my short address by October thirty-first as you wish. Yours very truly Childe Hassam. This letter was likely to F. Edwin Church, the nephew of artist Frederic Edwin Church. Hassam did not start visiting Old Lyme Art Colony in Connecticut until 1903, and Frederic Edwin Church died in 1900. However, his nephew that is named after him was an artist and illustrator known for his portraits and Japanese-influenced style. F. Edwin Church was a member of the National Academy of Design and the Salmagundi Club, where Hassam was also a member. This letter mentions sending a short address, likely referring to an administrative task regarding one of these shared clubs. The letter is framed below a reproduction of Hassams work Allies Day, May 1917. This letter is professionally framed and in very fine condition.
