John Singer Sargent: Much more than a modern Van Dyck ONLINE VIA ZOOM
Lecturer: Frank Woodgate
Lecture Date: 17 November, 2020
Sargent was the great society portraitist of the turn of the 19th/20th centuries, but he was much more than that. His art was extremely varied and the breadth of his work can still surprise people. As well as his wonderful portraits, the lecture includes examples of his landscape paintings, inspired by the Impressionists, his work as an official War Artist in Word War I and his extremely beautiful and delicate watercolours.
