<div><font face=Lato size=3 color=black><em>Dancing Girl</em> dates from 1881 to 1882, a dynamic and exploratory moment in William Merritt Chase’s career when he was actively engaging with European subjects and broadening the expressive range of American painting. The work is included in the Chase catalogue raisonne and reflects the artists fascination with Spanish themes, which many American painters of the period encountered firsthand while studying the masters in the Prado and absorbing the culture, costume, and movement of Spain.

تعود لوحة "الراقصة" إلى الفترة ما بين 1881 و 1882، وهي فترة ديناميكية واستكشافية في مسيرة ويليام ميريت تشيس الفنية، حيث كان منشغلاً بشكل كبير بموضوعات أوروبية ويوسع نطاق التعبير في الرسم الأمريكي. ترد هذه اللوحة في كتالوج تشيس وتجسد انجذاب الفنان للموضوعات الإسبانية، التي تعرف عليها العديد من الرسامين الأمريكيين في تلك الفترة عن كثب أثناء دراستهم لأعمال كبار الفنانين في متحف برادو واستيعابهم للثقافة والأزياء والحركة في إسبانيا. على الرغم من أن اللوحة أُخطئ في تصنيفها لاحقًا من قبل أحد مالكيها الأوائل على أنها مشهد شارع إيطالي، إلا أن تشيس كان في إسبانيا خلال الصيف الذي تم فيه إنشاء هذا العمل، مما يضعه بشكل قاطع ضمن فترته الإسبانية.


 


تصور الشخصية الوحيدة المتحركة امرأة في حالة حركة، وهو موضوع نادر بشكل ملحوظ في أعمال تشيس ويختلف عن الشخصيات النسائية الأكثر تأملاً التي تهيمن على أعماله الأكثر قيمة. تشارك لوحته التي سجلت رقماً قياسياً في المزاد، I Think I Am Ready Now من حوالي عام 1883، التركيز على شخصية نسائية واحدة من نفس الفترة، مما يؤكد أهمية هذه اللحظة في تطوره الفني. يرتبط هذا العمل أيضًا ارتباطًا وثيقًا بأمثلة مؤسسية مهمة، بما في ذلك Carmencita من عام 1885 في متحف المتروبوليتان للفنون و A Tambourine Player في متحف مونتكلير للفنون، وكلاهما يسلط الضوء على اهتمام تشيس المستمر بالراقصات والأزياء الإسبانية.





تم إعارة اللوحة لمدة طويلة إلى متحف الفنون الجميلة في بوسطن من عام 1906 إلى عام 1922، مما يؤكد الاعتراف المؤسسي المبكر بها. ينبغي النظر إلى أعمال تشيس الإسبانية في سياق حوار مع أعمال جون سينجر سارجنت، الذي التقى به في عام 1881 بينما كان سارجنت يعمل على دراسات لـ El Jaleo، حيث استلهم كلا الفنانين من فيلاسكيز. تعتبر Dancing Girl مثالًا حيويًا وغير مألوف لتشيس وهو يصور امرأة وهي تلعب، حيث يلتقط الحركة والإيقاع واللحظة الثقافية في ذروة انخراطه الأوروبي.
