THE GRAND AFFAIR: John Singer Sargent in His World
Offers a vivid life of the buttoned-up artist and his unbuttoned work. Sargent's nervy, edgy portraits exposed illicit or dark feelings in himself and his sitters--feelings that London, Paris, and New York high society was fascinated by yet kept at bay. Traces Singer's life from his wandering trans-European childhood to the salons of Paris, and the scandals and enthusiasms he elicited. 16 pages of color photos.
