  • John Singer Sargent in Historical Fiction
    Sargentology.com John Singer Sargent in Historical Fiction Mary F. Burns ____________________________________ Survey of Fiction That Features Sargent as a Character John Singer Sargent appears as a fictional character in relatively few but widely varied works of fiction: Children’s and Young Adult books, short stories, literary fiction, mystery stories, a play and even a ballet. We’ll take each category in turn. Children’s and Young Adult Books One of the more interesting YA stories to feature Sargent as a character was Douglas Rees’s The Janus Gate1 (2006), a weirdly scary, paranormal tale of Gothic-style haunting involving the daughters of Edward Darley Boit. Sargent, while painting his famous portrait of the Boit girls, is drawn into the secret psychological world of the four neglected children of a neurotic mother, with dire consequences and intense challenges to the painter’s courage and sense of honor. His painting technique and style are delineated in some detail, and Sargent is portrayed as a polite, sensitive, astute observer. The story is told in his first- person point of view. The opening paragraph, addressed to the reader, gives a good sense of how the reader is to experience him: I have always been a man of first impressions. They strike me like bursts of light and overwhelm me, reducing me to silence, or to stuttering, telegraphic speech. I wave my hands and try to say something such as, “This painting of Millet’s is far too realistic for my taste. See how he has tried to get the absolute reality of every inch of the surface of these rocks, every leaf of these trees.

  • Edward Elgar and John Singer Sargent
    The Last Late-Romantics: Edward Elgar and John Singer Sargent Arthur S. Reynolds Although they were distinguished artistic contemporaries, the paths of Elgar and the painter John Singer Sargent crossed on very few occasions, and then only as dinner guests of a mutual friend. And yet they may have had more in common than their passing acquaintance suggests. This article draws parallels between their respective careers and temperaments, and finds much in both of their lives that casts an informative light on the other. March 1905 was a busy time in the life of Sir Edward Elgar. The month began in Birmingham, where Elgar had gone to supervise preparations for the inaugural lecture he was to give on 16March as Birmingham University’s first Peyton Professor of Music. By 4 March he was back at ‘Plâs Gwyn’ to collect Alice for an urgent London train journey to rehearse the London Symphony Orchestra for a concert at Queen’s Hall on 8 March. The programme would include two premières: Elgar’s new march, Pomp and Circumstance No. 3, and his ‘string thing’, the Introduction and Allegro for String Quartet and String Orchestra. As usual on important London occasions, the Elgars stayed with Frank Schuster at his house in Old Queen Street, Westminster. Schuster celebrated the performances of the new works with a grand dîner on 12 March. Among the guests was John Singer Sargent, by common consent the finest portrait painter then living. This was the third time the two titans of their respective art forms had encountered one another in Frank Schuster’s dining room.

Performing Identities in the art of John Singer Sargent Abstract In the elegant society portraits by John Singer Sargent, body language created social identities. The fallen dress strap and obvious makeup in Madame X, for example, declared her a “professional beauty”; the costume of Charles Stewart proclaimed him a British lord. Critics often conflated appearance and character in Sargent's images, yet Sargent used theatre and masquerade in numerous works to problematize essentialist links between appearance and character that were fundamental to turn-of-the-century class, gender, and racial stereotypes. This dissertation concentrates on the art Sargent produced after Madame X, as he recovered from the scandal it provoked in 1884 and as he established his patron base in England and America. Many of Sargent's later works can be seen as a response to the issues raised by Madame X concerning the relationship between appearance and character. An analysis of theatrical elements in Sargent's paintings elucidates the function of these images in variously maintaining and challenging notions of social identity. Chapter One discusses the critical reception of Sargent's art in the context of a turn-of-the-century culture engaged in classification and performance activities.

    Readex Report Every Shade and Shadow: Seeing John Singer Sargent, Master Portrait Painter, under the Spotlight of American Newspapers By Suping Lu Professor and Library Liaison, University of Nebraska-Lincoln Born on January 12, 1856, in Florence, Italy, to American parents, John Singer Sargent—one of the most important portrait painters of his time—lived all his life in Europe, including Italy, France, Germany, Switzerland, and Great Britain. He did not touch U.S. soil until 1876 when he was 20. However, his U.S. citizenship and his ancestral roots in New England were sufficient enough for historians to classify him as a prominent American artist. More importantly, Sargent himself considered it an honor to be American; he remained an American citizen all his life, although he chose to live in Great Britain from 1884 until his death in 1925. In 1912 American newspapers reported that he would have received the British Order of Merit had he become a British subject. [1] Largely due to his American identity, in particular after he attained distinction as a portrait painter of upper-class Europeans, United States newspapers continuously carried news about Sargent during his lifetime. They were, for the most part, generous with their praise of his achievements and success, regarding him as “a master of technique, and as one of the most brilliant artists of his day, with no equal among the men of his generation.”[2] When Sargent was elected a full member of the British Royal Academy in 1897, the Cleveland Plain Dealer went so far as telling its readers that “Sargent has beaten his master, Carolus Duran, on his own ground.

  • John Singer Sargent 1856-1925 a Survey of His Life and Work
    Page 1 of 8 John Singer Sargent 1856-1925 A Survey of his Life and Work Colin Lomas 07909 896 541 [email protected] “John Singer Sargent - The Van Dyke of our times” - Auguste Rodin John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) was an American virtuoso portrait painter who settled in London and painted high society in the late 19th and early 20th century. He was born in Italy of American ex-patriate parents and was trained in Florence and Paris, settling in London in 1884/5 and continuing the bravura (bold and daring) tradition of Sir Thomas Lawrence, crossed with Velasquez. He visited the US frequently and painted large-scale decorations in Boston Public Library, the Museum of Fine Arts and Harvard University, but is best known for his portraits and for his brilliant watercolours, which may reflect his friendship with Monet, whom he met in 1870 and whose paintings he bought. In 1880 he visited Spain where he saw paintings by Velasquez. The technical skill and simple colour schemes of Sargent’s portraits reflect Velasquez, but seen through the eyes of Manet and Courbet: Sargent’s Mme Gautreau, exhibited in Paris 1884, shows all this but was a success de scandal and was one of the reasons for his leaving Paris for London. His huge output means that his portraits are almost everywhere in Britain and America. “His superficial brilliance is very like that of Boldini”. The entry for John Singer Sargent in Penguin Dictionary of Art and Artists by Peter and Linda Murray. Boldini will be examined in Notes 4 “John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) was the greatest portrait painter of his generation.
