Note du spécialiste

‘The paint—Sargent’s paint—and how he handled it were a revelation. It seemed like he painted in a way that was so fast, so open, and so abstract that it was almost a miracle that the paint somehow landed on the canvas to make a portrait. His watercolors looked like they were made so quickly, so urgently, and with such economy.’
–Elizabeth Peyton
