Coast Scene, Isles of Shoals is a 1901 painting by the American Impressionist painter Childe Hassam, which is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[1]

Done in oil on canvas in luminous colors, the painting depicts the remote Isles of Shoals off the rocky shoreline of New England, a favorite haunt of Childe Hassam at the end of the 19th century and where he painted a series of similar coastal scenes.

The painting is accompanied at the Metropolitan Museum of Art by Surf, Isles of Shoals, a similar work by Hassam.
