La Cheminée is a 1909 oil by Walter Gay, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
This painting shows a room with a fireplace. The fireplace is the main focus, with a mantle and a mirror above it. There are some objects on the mantle, like vases and pictures. The room is painted in warm colors, with lots of browns and tans. The painting looks like it was done in a style that makes things look soft and not too sharp. It's like the artist used a special technique to make the colors blend together. The overall feeling of the painting is cozy and comfortable, like you're sitting in a warm room on a cold day.
