Women and children with parasols sit and play on the sand at Shinnecock, Long Island, under a big summer sky. Chase painted these beach scenes in the 1890s, outdoors and quickly, in the manner of the French Impressionists. It is in the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

This print reproduces the whole work, uncropped, from a high-resolution scan of the original. The original is in the public domain.

Where it works

A sunny beach scene for a bathroom, bedroom or beach house in a thin black frame. It suits white or pale blue walls and pairs with Idle Hours.

Size. Prints at 18×12, 24×16 in — 18×12 for a shelf, desk or a gallery-wall grid; 24×16 above a console or sideboard.

Framing. The gallery ground is part of the print, so frame it without a mat — dark wood flatters the lighter palette; black sharpens it.

Pairing. Pairs as a set of three with other famous painting prints (10% off three or more).

Is this the whole painting, or a crop?

The whole work, uncropped. The image fills the print at the painting's own proportions; nothing is trimmed to fit a frame.

Is At the Seaside in the public domain?

Yes. William Merritt Chase (1849–1916) died more than 70 years ago and the work was published before 1929, so the painting itself is public domain. This print is a reproduction made from a high-resolution scan of the original, which is held by The Metropolitan Museum of Art.

What is it printed on?

Heavyweight matte fine-art paper with pigment inks, made to order in 18×12 and 24×16 inches; every size is also offered framed in black or dark wood, with plexiglass and no mat. Colours are matched to the scan, not brightened.

When was At the Seaside painted, and in what medium?

At the Seaside dates from c. 1892 and was made in oil on canvas; the original measures 50.8 × 86.4 cm.

What size works above a sofa or bed?

Across a three-seat sofa or a queen bed, 24×16 is the size that reads as one statement piece; 18×12 suits a narrower wall or a pair. It is a landscape print, wider than it is tall, at the painting's own proportions.
