Women Under Trellis

Description

Women Under Trellis by William Merritt Chase shows women gathered in a garden beneath a trellis, with a seated figure in a broad red hat at right and other people near a low wall. The figures are spaced across the courtyard rather than gathered into one cluster. A pale path fills much of the foreground, crossed by irregular shadows from overhead leaves.
