"A Bit of the Terrace", also known as "Early Morning Stroll", is a notable painting by the prominent American Impressionist artist William Merritt Chase (1849–1916). Created in the late 19th or early 20th century, this work exemplifies Chase's mastery in capturing the interplay of light and color, as well as his interest in leisurely outdoor scenes and contemporary life.

The painting depicts a tranquil scene of a figure, possibly a woman based on the attire, taking a leisurely walk on a terrace or in a garden. The setting is likely inspired by the urban parks or private gardens that were common in the affluent areas of New York City, where Chase lived and worked for much of his career. The figure's relaxed posture and the serene environment reflect the leisurely pace and the genteel lifestyle of the era.

Chase's technique in "A Bit of the Terrace" is characterized by loose and expressive brushwork, a hallmark of the Impressionist movement, which he adapted and interpreted through an American lens. The use of light and shadow, as well as the vibrant yet harmonious color palette, suggests the influence of French Impressionism, which Chase encountered during his studies in Europe.

The painting is a testament to Chase's ability to blend European artistic trends with American subjects, creating works that were both modern and distinctly his own. "A Bit of the Terrace" is not only a reflection of Chase's artistic skill but also an important piece within the broader context of American Impressionism and its development at the turn of the century.

As a significant work by William Merritt Chase, "A Bit of the Terrace" is likely to be held in a museum or private collection, contributing to the understanding of Chase's oeuvre and the cultural landscape of the period in which he worked. The painting continues to be appreciated for its aesthetic qualities and as an example of the artist's contribution to American art history.
