Reviews
This is a beautiful book. There are so many exquisite images of paintings which I have never seen before. It basically covers Sargent's early years. There is no doubt that this man was born gifted and fortunately, had the encouragement and determination to build upon his talent. An inspiration for all painters and art lovers alike.
