I recently wrote about John Singer Sargent in my piece about fashion! I am drawn to his work because of his active role in styling his sitters, his vivid imagination, meticulous attention paid to garments and colors and all their nuances. (You probably already know this, but there's an excellent exhibition on Sargent at Tate Britain, called Sargent and Fashion.)

Thank you for writing a concise review! He’s one of my favorite artists too; what drew me to his work at first sight was the beauty and skill in each portrait. Each of his works seems to breathe, his portraits of children are particularly vivacious - as his sitters must have been.
