Uncanny Spectacle
Drawing on the correspondence of the artist, his friends and his family, as well as a review of contemporary critical responses, this text examines the work of Sargent's early maturity. The text is the catalogue for an exhibition at the Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute in Summer 1997.
John Sargent
The career of John Sargent, perhaps the greatest painter of his time, and surely one of the greatest portrayers and interpreters of it in his famous portraits of its most eminent and most representative figures, is here chronicled in successive stages. The figure of the hero stands out in high relief from the narrative which his personality pervades. A wealth of anecdote and of letters enriches the record of work, travel, and triumph, from student days under Carolus-Duran to the time when the presidency of the Royal Academy could have been his; and in all this opulent detail the character of the man overshadows even the distinction of the artist as the true theme of the book.
