Video Description
John Singer Sargent, The story behind the famous painting of the young socialite, Virginie Amélie Avegno Gautreau, wife of the French banker Pierre Gautreau is most interesting. A very young John Sargent in 1881 had met her at a social gathering and was immediately struck by her beauty or more correctly - her paintable beauty. So he contacted a mutual friend to see if she would consent to sit for a portrait, which he planned for the salon. His 7 previous years of showing at the Salon had immediate successes, but this time would be different. EBooks now available: 1, John Singer Sargent eBook: https://payhip.com/b/owI20 2.
