“Portrait of Edouard and Marie-Loise Pailleron”
John Singer Sargent

I love this painting. I remember looking at it before in my book of Sargent’s work, but I didn’t remember such saturated colors. I didn’t remember the rich colors because the reproduction was in black and white! I am amazed by how beautiful it is in color.

    Yeah, I’ve always liked this one as well. The light shining on the little girl’s face creating that dark mood shadow, facial expressions, dress, whirlwind-like drapery in the background, etc. Beautiful!
