While impressionists such as Childe Hassam, William Merritt Chase, and John Twachtman figure prominently, the collection also includes works by Winslow Homer, John Singer Sargent, Edward Hopper, and other luminaries. Impressionist landscapes by Willard Metcalf and Theodore Robinson offset contemplative interiors by William Paxton and Edmund Tarbell." (dj) Nice!. VG (Few marks from previous gallery owner.) .
