More about this artwork

We are delighted to present John Singer Sargent's captivating painting, "Portrait of Charlotte Cram" from 1900. This work is a beautiful representation of Sargent’s masterful ability to capture the innocence and unique character of his subjects. The painting portrays the young Charlotte Cram, a child at the time, seated in an ornate chair. Her expression is thoughtful and somewhat enigmatic, framed by her softly curling hair and accentuated by a striking yellow bow, which not only captures the light but also adds a lively contrast to the predominantly dark background.The use of light and shadow in this portrait is exemplary. Sargent expertly uses bright, white tones for Charlotte's dress and golden yellow for her bow, making these elements stand out against the deep, rich burgundy backdrop. This masterful use of lighting draws the viewer’s eye directly to her engaging face and the delicate details of her attire.Charlotte's pose—resting her arms on the chair—combined with her direct gaze, creates a sense of immediacy and intimacy, inviting the viewer into her world. This portrait is not only a testimony to Sargent's skill as a portraitist but also a glimpse into the quiet moments of a young girl's life at the turn of the 20th century.

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.
