 | Albert de Belleroche (half portrait) c. 1882 Private Collection Unknown, USA |
Albert de
Belleroche (1864-1944) was a fellow art student in Carolus-Duran's studio. He
joined the atelier in '82 at the age of eighteen making him the Freshman to the
Upper Classman Sargent who was twenty-six. The dedication to "baby
Milbank" is actually the senior Sargent affectionately/teasingly nodding
to the new kid --
"Milbank" being... | GA | igrkio |
 | Daughters of Edward Darley Boit 1882 Museum of Fine Arts Boston, MA |
In 1883
Sargent exhibited at the Salon his portrait which he called Portraits d'Enfants
or Daughters of Edward Darley Boit. Its composition was criticized for its
"four corners and a void" the children not having any relationship to
each other but the painting, overall, was widely praised. (Charteris, P57-58).
The painting is large and exactly... | GA | igrkio |
 | Dr. Robert Farquharson of Finzean (1875-1899) 1881 |
From: Aberdeen Art Gallery and Museums
The sitter
was the older brother of Joseph Farquharson RA who
was a friend of John Singer Sargent. This dashing
portrait illustrates very clearly Sargent's bold use
of brushwork and limited palette. Robert Farquharson
was laird of Finzean near Banchory
and also the member of Parliament for West... | GA | igrkio |

I've seen
in person in the Armand Hammer collection and was just hoping to find it here
[in Major paintings] . . .
It's a
portrait, but more than a piece of a singular subject, it's an "ode to

 | El Jaleo 1882 Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum Boston, MA |
Q. What is the meaning of El Jaleo?
I just
viewed a video called American Visions: the Gilded Age, done for PBS in 1997
written and narrated by Robert Hughes. In it he talks about El Jaleo. He says
it means the spontaneous clapping and shouting that comes like an
"Olay!" at the apex of a performance.
So what
we're seeing is the zenith of the... | GA | igrkio |
 | Femme avec Fourrures (Woman with Furs) c. 1880-1885 Sterling and Francine Clark Art Institute Williamstown, MA |
At one
point it was thought that the person Sargent gave
this to (D. Vergeses) was the subject but it was
later believed that it probbaly wasn't.

I've
attached a shot of the museum's title card too. This is a small painting. I've
included a poor shot of it in it's
frame just for scale. I love the... | GA | igrkio |
