About the Art Conceived under the most unusual of circumstances, and nurtured in a remarkable setting at Broadway, The Cotswold, England, this painting is overwhelmingly held out by the public -- then as well as today -- to be the most favored painting of all his work.

About the Artist John Singer Sargent was an American painter by birth-right. He was born in Florence, to American parents and traveled extensively throughout Europe.

His output was prodigious. Challenge Color Palette: The Prizes: Bead Divas. Wholesale Beads and Jewelry Making Supplies - Fire Mountain Gems.
