{"product_id":"john-singer-sargent-portraits-charcoal","title":"John Singer Sargent: Portraits in Charcoal","description":"John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) was one of the greatest portrait artists of his time. While he is best known for his powerful paintings he largely ceased painting portraits in 1907 and turned instead to charcoal drawings to satisfy portrait commissions. These drawn portraits represent a substantial yet often overlooked part of his practice and they demonstrate the same sense of immediacy psychological sensitivity and mastery of chiaroscuro that animate Sargent?s sitters on canvas. This volume presents over sixty superb portrait drawings showcasing sitters famous for their roles in politics society and the arts. It also explores the friendships and the networks of patronage that underpinned Sargent?s practice as a portrait draftsman in Edwardian Britain and Progressive Era America.\t\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eHardcover:\u003c\/b\u003e 192 pages\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e GILES (October 8 2019)\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1911282484\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 978-1911282488\u003c\/p\u003e                                                                                    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e    Product Dimensions:     \u003c\/b\u003e    10 x 0.8 x 11.8 inches    \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003eShipping Weight:\u003c\/b\u003e 2.9 pounds \u003c\/p\u003e    \u003cp\u003e\u003cb\u003e\u003c\/b\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"History \u0026 Criticism","offers":[{"title":"Hardcover","offer_id":31377757732935,"sku":"1911282484","price":50.2,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0268\/6595\/8983\/products\/51dQ48ziEfL.jpg?v=1574919581","url":"https:\/\/bookhiipacosa.myshopify.com\/products\/john-singer-sargent-portraits-charcoal","provider":"BookHiipaCosa","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
