John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) stands among the greatest of watercolor painters, along with J.M.W. Turner, Winslow Homer, and other masters of this difficult medium. Watercolor was more than a distraction from the portrait and mural commissions Sargent labored over; after 1900, watercolor became central to his artistic vision.

lovely to look at,
This book has fairly good reproductions of Sargent’s watercolors. What I enjoy most is seeing many of his watercolors for the first time. My only complaint is that the book’s smaller size limits how big the reproductions can be. Otherwise, this is a fantastic book.

|Inspiring and Challenging reproductions by a Master of light,
Sargent’s inspirations were Velasquez, Hals, Rubens. These were painters who understood the play of light. And they had a worthy apprentice in JSS.He understands that it is light that is the unifier of all his paintings, regardless of theme. JSS painted in watercolour for his own pleasure. (His mother taught him the medium at an early age). His brilliant mastery of both technique, light and sumptious colour are all captured in the reproductions in this book. Like others who have reviewed the book I return to it again and again. Happy pictures by a Mozart of the medium. How could you not buy it?

|An all-time Favorite,
I turn to this book time and again and am always astounded at the paintings. In his watercolor work, Sargent was a “Painter’s Painter” – an artist who worked with paint so playfully, with color so passionatly, with caligraphic brushwork so seemingly irreverent – that the final effect is breathtaking and as fresh as the moment it was painted.
