EDITORS COMMENTS
This black and white portrait captures the elegance and grace of Ethel Anne Priscilla, wife of William Henry, 1st Baron Desborough. Created in 1909 by renowned artist John Singer Sargent, this charcoal on paper print showcases his exceptional talent for capturing the essence of his subjects. Ethel Fane, as she was known before her marriage to Baron Desborough, exudes a sense of aristocratic charm in this head and shoulders depiction. Her refined features are beautifully highlighted by a delicate necklace adorning her neck. The meticulous attention to detail brings out every nuance of her expression, revealing both strength and vulnerability. As one gazes upon this artwork from a private collection, it is impossible not to be transported back in time to an era defined by opulence and social hierarchy. Lady Desborough's regal presence speaks volumes about the privileged world she inhabited. It is believed that this exquisite piece may have been a personal gift from Sargent himself; a testament to the close relationship between artist and subject. Ethel Anne Priscilla's enduring beauty captured on paper serves as a timeless reminder of an influential figure within high society. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable portrayal for all art enthusiasts to appreciate. This print allows us to admire Lady Desborough's allure while celebrating Sargent's masterful technique that continues to captivate audiences even today
