John Really Knows His Craft,
By
This review is from: Great Expectations: John Singer Sargent Painting Children (Hardcover)
He has drawn and painted children since his teens. I liked how he painted his youngest sister Violet from the time she was born in 1870 until her marriage to Mr. Ormond. His paintings of children are diverse, from the kids from the Lily Carnation picture, to the upper class work study of the Boit children, to the teenage picture of Rosina nestled on a tree limb in Capri.
He really showed his craft in painting the diverse pictures of children. He may not have had children, but his interest in them were very sincere and touching.

Sargent Book,
By
This review is from: Great Expectations: John Singer Sargent Painting Children (Hardcover)
The book of children's paintings by Sargent is sold in many book stores. An excellent book, its list price is $60. Amazon lists it at nearly 50% less. Thus, the sale was not so much for a superior product, as for a far cheaper price.
