EDITORS COMMENTS
In this oil painting, "Two Girls with Parasols" by John Singer Sargent, we are transported back to the year 1888. The artist masterfully captures a moment of innocence and beauty as two young girls stroll through the English countryside. The unfinished canvas reveals Sargent's skillful brushstrokes and his ability to create an impressionistic scene bathed in sunlight. Dappled violet hues dance across the landscape, creating a sense of tranquility and serenity. These Edwardian sisters exude charm and grace as they leisurely walk together, their full-length dresses gently swaying with each step. Each girl holds a parasol, shielding them from the sun's rays while adding an elegant touch to their ensemble. This portrait is a testament to Sargent's talent for capturing not only physical likeness but also the essence of his subjects' personalities. The casual yet refined Belle Époque attire reflects the fashion trends of that era. As we gaze upon this masterpiece, we can almost feel ourselves walking alongside these two girls in Berkshire, England. We can imagine hearing their laughter echoing through the countryside as they enjoy a leisurely afternoon in nature. Displayed at New York City's Metropolitan Museum of Art, this American treasure serves as a reminder of Sargent's contribution to both American and English art during his time. It is truly an enchanting piece that transports us back to another era filled with simplicity and natural beauty.
