Great book for those who attended National Gallery exhibit
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This wonderful paperback is a great buy for anyone who attended the National Gallery exhibit in Washington D.C. recently. The quality of the prints do a great job of capturing the beauty of Sargeant's work. The text is somewhat "high brow" for the layperson, but gives an interesting perspective regarding the works included in the exhibition. The book is an excellent way to remember the exhibit without spending a lot of money on a coffee-table type of book.
Wonderful book on Sargent
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 25 years ago
This is a very well put together and well printed interpretive work on the paintings of John Singer Sargent. The coverage is insightful and the quality of the printing is superb. It is the best companion publication to the exhibit which is currently held at the National Gallery in Washington, D.C. and later to appear in Boston. The official catalog of the exhibit disappoints as it leaves out a number of significant works that are covered under this volume. This is a must for any nineteenth century art enthusiasts and a must for fans of Sargent and portraiture in general.
