By separating rhetoric from reality, this well-timed release allows readers to...

Summary: Many of the sitters in this collection were John Singer Sargent's close friends. They are posed informally, sometimes in the act of painting or singing, and it is evident from the bold way they confront us that they are personalities of a creative stamp.
