Really cool topic - I like the sense of sophistication of these paintings. They have a first intention and they are not over worked. Because of that they still feel very current.
~John Singer Sargent is one of my favorite portrait artists
~I very much like the first painting in this post....it is fun and appealing~
Mr. Meade darling, glad you and Anne Marie enjoyed the artwork. Rare and intriguing early 20c European portraits are so captivating.
