Inside This Book (Learn More)
First Sentence
It would be extravagant to see in the miscellany of Sargent's juvenile sketchbooks - the sketches of landscapes and animals, the architectural details and classical copies  the seeds of a substantial talent, hut the expressive liveliness of some of the portrait and figure studies stand out as something a little beyond the ordinary. Read the first page

5.0 out of 5 stars Every time I paint a portrait , I lose a friend , 20 Aug 2008
By Klaus van Amelrode "kmcva" - See all my reviews
(TOP 50 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)      
Sargent said. Well, then he must have lost a lot of friends and lucky for us as he left amazing protraits.

This book is the first in a trilogy of portrait volumes by Sargent.

I always loved his paintings as they reveal much about the individuality and personality of the sitters.


If one loves portraits, this is a book or better the triology one does not want to miss.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellect reproductions!, 8 Jul 1998
By A Customer
This was the finest quality art book we have seen in a long time! The reproductions are excellent. It is obvious that much care and consideration went into the production of this book. The 'stories' that caption each image are in depth and enthralling, pulling information from obscure resources and contemporary letters and diary entries. The sitters' personalities are really brought to life.

We would have been willing to pay much more for a book of this quality and scope. This has been our best art purchase in years! We are eagerly awaiting the publication of volume two.
