More about this artwork

Welcome to our online exhibit featuring the delicate graphite work of John Singer Sargent, titled "Seated Woman" (c. 1890-1900). In this drawing, Sargent captures the elegance and refined posture of a woman resting in a chair. The artwork showcases Sargent's mastery in using soft pencil lines to define the figure and the graceful fall of fabric, while suggesting movement and a relaxed demeanor.In the image, the woman is dressed in a style typical of the late 19th century, adorned with a hat that adds to her dignified look. Her facial expression, gently hinted at by Sargent's careful strokes, conveys a serene and contemplative mood. The background, rendered with horizontal line work, contrasts with the verticality of her pose, highlighting her within the composition."Seated Woman" is a beautiful example of Sargent’s skill in portraiture, focusing not only on physical likeness but also capturing the essence and atmosphere surrounding the subject.

Born in Florence to American expatriate parents, John Singer Sargent (1856–1925) is considered Europe's leading portrait painter of the Edwardian era. He was educated at both Accademia delle Belle Arti and Paris's École des Beaux Arts. While in Paris, under the guidance of Émile–Auguste Carolus–Duran, a portraitist and muralist, Sargent learned to paint directly from observation without first sketching, employing a fluidity, influenced by the Impressionists. Sargent created more than 2,900 paintings, mainly portraits and landscapes from his travels across the Atlantic, Europe, the Middle East and America.
