"A Young Roman" is a notable painting by the American artist William Merritt Chase (1849–1916), a distinguished figure in the American Impressionist movement. This work, created in the late 19th century, exemplifies Chase's adept skill in portraiture, his fascination with European culture, and his ability to infuse his subjects with a sense of individual personality and mood. While Chase is perhaps best known for his portraits, still lifes, and landscapes, "A Young Roman" stands out for its evocative portrayal of a young man, presumably inspired by Chase's travels and studies in Europe, particularly in Italy.

The painting captures the essence of its title through the attire, demeanor, and setting that suggest a romanticized view of Roman youth, blending classical ideals with the modern painting techniques of Chase's time. The subject is depicted with a level of detail and realism that showcases Chase's mastery of light, shadow, and texture, while also hinting at the character and inner life of the young man portrayed. This work reflects Chase's broader interest in the cultures and histories of Europe, an interest that deeply influenced his artistic style and thematic choices.

"A Young Roman" is significant not only for its artistic merit but also for its place within the context of American art at the turn of the century, a period marked by a growing interest in international art movements and the development of a distinctive American voice in the visual arts. Through works like this, Chase contributed to the dialogue between American artists and their European counterparts, exploring themes of identity, tradition, and modernity.

As with many of Chase's works, "A Young Roman" is appreciated for its technical excellence, its rich historical and cultural references, and its ability to convey a sense of the universal through the depiction of a single individual. The painting remains an important piece in the study of William Merritt Chase's oeuvre, offering insight into the artist's influences, his technical prowess, and his enduring fascination with the human figure and its myriad expressions.
