John Singer Sargent: The Sensualist

John Singer Sargent: The Sensualist by Trevor Fairbrother. hardcover edition. ISBN: 9780300087444.

In this beautiful book, Trevor Fairbrother argues that viewing John Singer Sargent as a sensualist connects otherwise conflicting elements of his oeuvre and offers a new interpretation of his life and work. The book is lavishly illustrated with examples of the artists oils, watercolors, and sketches, and it includes a little-known series of expressive charcoal drawings of male nudes, here published together in color for the first time.Published in association with the Seattle Art Museum
