Sargent and Paris
New York, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, 2025 Hardcover, 256 pages, 8'' x 11 1/2'' , EN, Illustrated. *New. ISBN 9781588397959.
In 1874, eighteen-year-old American artist John Singer Sargent went to Paris to become a painter. Ten years later, he would become an art-world sensation when he sparked controversy with his scandalous portrait Madame X at the 1884 Salon. Sargent and Paris focuses on this decisive early decade in the artist?s career, when he first achieved recognition for ambitious portraits and bold canvases that pushed the boundaries of convention. Eight incisive essays by the world's foremost Sargent scholars explore his life in Paris?then the epicenter of the cultural world?and the cosmopolitan circle of artists, writers, and cultivated patrons that nurtured his career and helped forge his artistic identity. Authors highlight the painter's connections to giants of the Parisian art scene as well as the influential patrons who were key to Sargent?s progression as an artist. Presented alongside lavish images of more than a hundred paintings and works on paper?brought together from public and private collections throughout the United States and Europe?this publication offers an intimate look at the roots of Sargent's signature, breathtaking style and his indelible experiences as a young artist in the French capital. Stephanie L. Herdrich is Alice Pratt Brown Curator of American Painting and Drawing, The American Wing, The Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
