"The Parasol" is an impressionist painting by American artist Frederick Carl Frieseke, created in 1910. This work is emblematic of Frieseke's fascination with the effects of dappled sunlight and shade, particularly as they play across the female form in outdoor settings. The painting features a woman, likely a model who frequently posed for Frieseke, seated beneath a parasol, which casts a pattern of light and shadow across her figure and the surrounding area.

Measuring 32 x 25 1/2 inches (81.3 x 64.8 cm), the painting is executed in oil on canvas, a medium that allowed Frieseke to explore and express the vibrant interplay of color and light that became a hallmark of his style. "The Parasol" is a fine example of Frieseke's work during his time in Giverny, France, where he was part of an artists' colony that included Claude Monet and other impressionists. The influence of Monet and the French impressionists is evident in Frieseke's loose brushwork, light palette, and the outdoor subject matter of the painting.

The composition of "The Parasol" is carefully constructed, with the figure of the woman positioned off-center and the parasol creating a dynamic diagonal line that adds movement to the scene. The woman's relaxed posture and contemplative expression suggest a moment of leisure and introspection, themes commonly found in Frieseke's depictions of women in garden settings.

"The Parasol" is considered an important work in Frieseke's oeuvre and contributes to the understanding of American Impressionism and its interpretation of French Impressionist aesthetics. The painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it has been exhibited in various art institutions, contributing to the appreciation of Frieseke's contribution to early 20th-century art.

As an artist, Frederick Carl Frieseke (1874-1939) played a significant role in the development of American Impressionism. He received numerous awards throughout his career and was recognized for his ability to capture the essence of light and color in his intimate portrayals of women in domestic and outdoor settings. "The Parasol" remains a testament to his mastery of the impressionist style and his enduring legacy in the art world.
