More about the book

Exploring John Singer Sargent's dual role as a society portrait painter, the book delves into the complexities of his artistic drive and the often mixed public reception of his work. It highlights how portraits can reveal contrasting perceptions between the artist and their subjects, with contemporary critiques frequently divided. The inclusion of additional essays broadens the discussion to themes of art collection and influences from other artists. Sargent’s own reflections on portraiture underscore the intricate relationship between artist, subject, and viewer.
