"By the Stream" is a notable painting by the American artist Maurice Brazil Prendergast, who was an influential figure in the Post-Impressionist movement in the United States. Prendergast, born in 1858 in St. John's, Newfoundland, and later relocating to Boston, Massachusetts, is renowned for his vibrant and colorful depictions of leisurely scenes and landscapes. His work is characterized by a distinctive style that blends elements of Impressionism with a unique, mosaic-like application of paint.

Created around the early 20th century, "By the Stream" exemplifies Prendergast's mature style, where he moved away from his earlier, more fluid Impressionist techniques to a more structured and decorative approach. The painting captures a serene, idyllic scene of figures gathered by a stream, set against a lush, verdant backdrop. The composition is marked by its rhythmic arrangement of forms and the harmonious interplay of colors, which create a sense of tranquility and leisure.

Prendergast's use of bold, flat areas of color and his emphasis on pattern and design reflect the influence of the Post-Impressionist artists he admired, such as Paul Cézanne and Georges Seurat. His travels to Europe, particularly his time spent in Paris, significantly shaped his artistic development, allowing him to absorb and reinterpret the avant-garde trends of the time.

"By the Stream" is celebrated for its decorative quality and its ability to convey a sense of joy and relaxation. The painting is part of the collection at the Williams College Museum of Art, which holds a significant number of Prendergast's works, providing insight into his artistic evolution and his contribution to American art. Through works like "By the Stream," Prendergast has left an enduring legacy, influencing subsequent generations of artists and cementing his place in the history of American painting.
