“Lady of Astor” by John Singer Sargent

“Lady of Astor” by John Singer Sargent

看这PORTRAIT 是享受!
背景的主黑色，和人物的浅色调 depicts a strong contrast, which suggests the elegance, vitality, intelligence, and distinction of the portrait.
Her posture and Laces are handsomely detailed with small brushstrokes.
For me, such treatments add the romantic notion of the lovely lady.

Thanks a lot for you sharing.
Could you please share me with your analysis.

I also like this website, http://jssgallery.org/, a truly virtual gallery.
The only inconvenience is that all portraits are displayed randomly.
