Exhibition at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, 2 October 2022 - 2 January 2023

Celebrated as the leading society portraitist of his era John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) influenced a generation of American painters. His personal captivation with Spain resulted in a remarkable body of work that documents his extensive travels from the north to the south and to the island of Majorca. Over three decades Sargent responded to the country's rich culture by producing landscapes and marine scenes, pictures of everyday life, and architectural studies, as well as sympathetic portrayals of the locals he encountered.

This exhibition catalogue presents approximately 120 oils, watercolors, and drawings, many of which rarely seen before. Also featured from the artist's travels are some 28 never-before published photographs, several almost certainly taken by Sargent himself.
