Specialist note
This painting will be included in Stuart P. Feld’s and Kathleen M. Burnside’s forthcoming catalogue raisonné of the artist’s work.
On a painting trip to Europe in 1910, Childe Hassam spent July and August in Paris, Amsterdam, The Hague and Antwerp, and later in the fall traveled south through France, finally arriving in Spain. Spain had been the primary destination for the trip, and for a month or more Hassam painted views in Seville, Madrid, Toledo, Cordova and La Ronda. Hassam depicts a similar street scene as the present work in Calle Venancio Gonzalez, Toledo (1910, Cincinnati Museum of Art, Cincinnati, Ohio).
