"Portrait of a Lady" is an oil on canvas painting by the prominent American Impressionist artist William Merritt Chase (1849–1916). Created in 1892, this work exemplifies Chase's skill in portraiture, a genre in which he excelled and gained considerable recognition during his career. The painting is notable for its expressive brushwork and the sophisticated use of color, which reflects the influence of European Impressionism on Chase's style.

The subject of "Portrait of a Lady" is not definitively identified, which is characteristic of many of Chase's portraits where the focus was often on the aesthetic presentation rather than the personal identity of the sitter. The lady is depicted in a three-quarter length pose, elegantly attired in a fashionable dress of the period, suggesting her status within society. Her expression is poised and contemplative, capturing a moment of introspection that invites viewers to ponder her thoughts and personality.

Chase's adept handling of light and shadow, as well as his attention to the textural qualities of fabric and accessories, are evident in this work. The background is typically muted, a stylistic choice that allows the figure to dominate the composition. "Portrait of a Lady" is a testament to Chase's mastery of portraiture and his ability to convey the grace and character of his subjects.

As a leading figure in American art at the turn of the 20th century, William Merritt Chase played a significant role in introducing Impressionism to America and in shaping the country's art education through his teaching at various institutions, including the Chase School of Art, which later became the Parsons School of Design. "Portrait of a Lady" is not only a representation of Chase's artistic talent but also a piece reflective of the broader cultural and aesthetic shifts occurring in American art during his lifetime.

The painting is part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic merit and as an example of American Impressionism.
