"Dorothy" is an oil on canvas painting by the prominent American Impressionist painter William Merritt Chase (1849–1916). Created in 1902, the artwork is a portrait of Dorothy Bremond, a member of a prominent New York family whom Chase knew personally. The painting is a quintessential example of Chase's mastery in portraiture, showcasing his skillful use of light, color, and brushwork to capture the essence and character of his subject.

The portrait features the young Dorothy seated in a relaxed, informal pose, which was characteristic of Chase's approach to portraiture, aiming to reflect the personality and natural demeanor of his sitters. She is depicted against a richly textured background that exemplifies Chase's interest in the harmonious interplay of colors and his ability to render various textures with his brushstrokes. The soft, diffused light that illuminates Dorothy's face and the intricate details of her dress highlight Chase's affinity with the Impressionist movement, while still maintaining a sense of solidity and form that is rooted in his academic training.

"Dorothy" is considered one of Chase's significant contributions to American Impressionism and portraiture. It not only demonstrates his technical prowess but also reflects the social and cultural milieu of the turn-of-the-century America, where the growing upper-middle class became an important subject for artists. The painting is held in a public collection, allowing viewers to appreciate Chase's work and its place within the broader context of American art history.
