I saw
[Alpine Pool on tour] today (here in San Diego, CA) and purchased the Exhibit
book for American Impressionists Abroad and at Home.
The photo
in the book does a complete injustice to the painting. I would like to see a
photo on the web that truly brings out the richness.... | GA | igrkio |

Sargent was
an avid chess player and was a game he often played on his painting trips.
In the

Zuleika
(zoo-LAY-ka) is of Persian and indirectly biblical origins with the meaning:
"Brilliant Beauty".

 | Baroness de Meyer 1907 Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery Birmingham, UK |
In 1907,
the Baroness de Meyer was painted
in Venice by Sargent's friend William Bruce Ranken (1881-1941). It very
well could have been in Venice where Sargent sketched her.
