La Isla de Shoals refleja uno de los temas más personales y recurrentes en la carrera de Childe Hassam, y permaneció en la colección del propio artista durante veinte años. Hassam visitó por primera vez las Islas de Shoals en 1884 y volvió a ellas regularmente hasta 1915. La belleza agreste de este pequeño archipiélago situado frente al golfo de Maine se convirtió en una fuente de inspiración fundamental a lo largo de toda su vida. La luz cambiante, las flores silvestres dispersas y las aguas cristalinas le proporcionaban una fuente constante de poesía visual, y las islas se convirtieron en el escenario de muchos de sus paisajes y escenas costeras más luminosos y célebres.





Vistas similares de las Islas de Shoals se encuentran ahora en las colecciones permanentes del Museo Metropolitano de Arte, la Galería Nacional de Arte y el Museo de Arte de Dallas, lo que subraya la importancia del tema dentro de la obra de Hassam. La importancia de este conjunto de obras se reafirmó en 2016, cuando el Museo Peabody Essex organizó una gran exposición dedicada íntegramente a sus pinturas de Shoals.





En La isla de Shoals, Hassam captura la clara luz del norte y el tranquilo esplendor de la costa rocosa, presentando una escena que refleja tanto la serenidad de las islas como la profunda conexión del artista con ellas.
