האי שולס משקף את אחד הנושאים האישיים והמתמשכים ביותר בקריירה של צ'יילד חסם, ונשאר באוסף האמן במשך עשרים שנה. חסם ביקר לראשונה באיי שולס בשנת 1884, וחזר באופן קבוע עד 1915, והיופי המחוספס של קבוצת איים קטנה זו מול מפרץ מיין הפך למקור השראה מרכזי לאורך חייו. האור המשתנה, פרחי הבר הפזורים והמים הצלולים הציעו אספקה ​​מתמדת של שירה חזותית, והאיים הפכו לנדנד לרבים מנופי החוף והחופים הזוהרים והמהוללים ביותר שלו.





נופים דומים של איי שולס נמצאים כיום באוספים הקבועים של המוזיאון המטרופוליטן לאמנות, הגלריה הלאומית לאמנות ומוזיאון דאלאס לאמנות, ומדגישים את חשיבות הנושא ביצירתו של חסאם. חשיבותו של גוף עבודות זה אושרה עוד יותר בשנת 2016 כאשר מוזיאון פיבודי אסקס ארגן תערוכה גדולה שהוקדשה כולה לציוריו של שולס.





בציור "אי שואלס", חסם לוכד את האור הצפוני הצלול ואת הפאר השקט של החוף הסלעי, ומציג סצנה המשקפת הן את שלוות האיים והן את הקשר העמוק של האמנים אליהם.
