More about this artwork

John Singer Sargent's portrait "Portrait of Constance Coolidge" from 1915 is a stunning depiction of a young woman, captured in the elegant and refined drawing style that Sargent is renowned for. Constance Coolidge, with her clear, intelligent gaze and a subtle smile, seems to emanate a calm confidence that is both inviting and serene.The portrait is executed primarily in charcoal, which allows for soft yet precise detailing in Constance's facial features and attire. The darkness of the background contrasts strikingly with the light, delicate strokes used to outline her figure, focusing viewer attention squarely on her face and the upper part of her dress. Constance's attire, particularly the intricately tied bow at her neck and her string of pearls, accents her youthful elegance and the fashion of the time.Sargent's skill in capturing the essence of his subjects is evident here; there's a liveliness to Constance's eyes and a gentle handling of the contours of her face that suggest not just her physical appearance but hint at a poised, vibrant personality. This drawing is not just a testament to Constance Coolidge’s beauty, but also an artistic capture of her character, preserved in the timeless elegance typical of Sargent’s best works.

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.
