 | Chiron and Achilles by John Singer Sargent 1922-25 Museum of Fine Arts Boston, MA | Sargent, John Singer | 
Sargent
ended up doing two versions of this composition, although both are of
significantly different mediums. The first (Thumbnail below) was part of a base
Bas-Relief for the Rotunda and was of raised painted plaster. The second (featured above) was later created for
the Stairway Ceiling Decorations and was oil on canvas.

Fenêtre. You can see the "ramp" in the photo... |

me but 1879 coincides with one of his trips to the Prado.
