"Portrait of Miss F. DeForest" is an oil painting by the prominent American Impressionist painter William Merritt Chase (1849–1916). Created in the late 19th century, this work exemplifies Chase's mastery in portraiture, showcasing his skillful use of color, light, and brushwork to capture the essence and personality of his sitters. The painting features a young woman, identified as Miss F. DeForest, who is depicted in a three-quarter length pose. She is dressed in the fashion of the day, which helps to date the painting and provides insight into the social context of the time.

Chase was known for his ability to render the textures of fabrics and the subtleties of human expression, and "Portrait of Miss F. DeForest" is no exception. The sitter's attire and demeanor are rendered with a level of detail and care that speaks to the artist's interest in the individual character of his subjects. The background of the painting is typically muted, allowing the viewer's focus to remain on the figure, a common technique in Chase's portraiture.

The painting is part of a larger body of work by Chase that includes portraits of women and children, often members of high society or his own family. "Portrait of Miss F. DeForest" reflects the influence of European Old Masters, whom Chase studied during his time abroad, as well as the modern sensibilities of the American Gilded Age.
