- John Singer Sargent without doubt is one of the most popular and accomplished artists of any generation. His skills with the brush and paint are exemplary but behind that obvious fact is his ability to simply Draw well. His draughtsmanship was nurtured and he worked very hard to be at the top of his game, but never wavered in planning carefully any project before him. We are looking into that aspect of his life's work..DRAWING.

Sargent's productivity is mind boggling, because he and his colleagues weren't confronted with all these useless distractions we hav to deal with almost every day! And in our time it is going to get even worse. "Every era has its own art" so while I and all the other current artists are being RAPED by A.I. I try my hardest to remain pure at heart ( my Art loving heart) And when I am able to sell my art I try to support the truth loving segment of our society under threat! Have a nice day every one!
He also chose not to be married or have really any meaningful romantic relationships that would get in his way. He was a generational force and would have done well even in todays world of distractions
The greatness of charcoal was never seen anywhere.
Great synopsis! I recently picked up a book " John S. Sargent-194 Master drawings" and it is epic! I think his use of middle tones is the magic of his art.
I’m in love with this channel. This is the information I needed in this chapter of my creative journey. Thank you 🙏🏾
I can't get enough of these fabulous presentations by the Gammell Lack Institute of American Art. The commentary is precise, uncomplicated and the voice is so pleasant and easy to hear. The finest of art too.
true, the wording and the tone, also the pacing just as pleasant as my favorite poetry
Amen a delightful education at it's least.
Thank you for this wonderful presentation. Sargent's productivity is mind boggling, especially considering that his virtuosity remained consistent throughout his career.
Thank you for this inspiring glance at one of the best artists ever! I just discovered John Singer Sargent recently, his art is breathtakingly beautiful!
I've been recently discovering your channel and its content and I'm literally blown away by the quality of the narration and information contained in each of these episodes. Thanks a thousand times for taking the time to produce such valuable content for everyone. 🙏
Thanks for showing this Superb Skilled Master
Sargent and Sorolla, my favorites.

When you walk into the Gardner Museum in Boston, I hope you still see the wall size Sargent painting of the Spanish dancer perfectly lit against the slightly dim vestibule so she seems to actually be there, the whole scene,close to life size, glowing and perfectly lit. The first time I saw it there it made me jump back in surprise.
The ideas that enabled him to succeed, principly, "..can never sketch enough!". His views ...there's no subject that shouldnt be drawn..Portraits showed personality ++ Thank you for this!
of the thousands of videos I have watched. this is truly one of my favorites. I love Sargent so much. what rare works present here, great job. Thank you.
I’m a big fan of Sargent…and this shows why. I’m of a similar thought and approach even though I’m self taught. I went from high school to the pros, and never looked back. Except for the schooling, Sargent and I are much alike. Great video.
This was so wonderful - I can’t wait to watch it again! JSS was so vigilant in his artistic efforts…what he produced is such a treasure for the world. Was recently in Boston for the MFA Singer exhibit and it was joyous. We also visited the Boston Public Library to see the murals and oh, how glorious they are (and that building is incredible). Thanks for sharing the information about these murals as well. Beautifully narrated, enough time to really look at the drawings as they are on screen….just so well done…I love your videos and am so grateful! Now, so generously inspired, I’m off to grab my pencil, lol!
We appreciate your comment, Thank you !
Sir, I feel so indebted. Three words: thanks thanks thanks!
Excellent. JSS is a favourite of mine.
Love the video, I love how elaborate the description and images are on it.
INSPIRATIONAL-A TIMELESS REFERENCE-THANK YOU!!!!!!
Brilliant artist, brilliant video. This video is not only well put together, but the narration is at the right pace (unlike the horrible tendency for new videos to be narrated at the speed of light). Thank you!
Many thanks!
Jesus, another artist to my collection
This video basically outlines all the necessities of good art, regardless of medium or style. Fantastic.
Wonderful & thoroughly enjoyable video on my favorite artist! I can never get enough of Sargent! Many thanks
Lovin' this!
Thank you for this, i'm going to be studying his methods from now on. Great work
👍талантливо и впечатляет. Берегите и развивайте главное не мешать, и помогать.
Thank you for this! But you really need to do another video on the crisis that the rejection of his magnificent Madam X portrait created in his life.
The hypocrisy of Parisian “High” society over a painting that depicted a fallen strap off the shoulder of the evening gown of a young, beautiful, proud and confident American woman was just too much for the French to bear. And its rejection was a devastating blow to both Sargent and the woman “Madam X”.
In short, Singer and his portrait career in France, was cancelled.
The money he had just spent on his new Parisian studio, all wasted, his future commissions, all evaporated, his future in French society was just completely gone.
His friend, in a letter, wrote that he was worried about Sargents mental health, when he dove into a rocky shoreline and hit his head on a rock.
Fortunately Sargent went back to England, and stayed with some friends, painted the local landscape and began that incredible painting “Carnation, Lily, Lily Rose.”
But that whole experience nearly wrecked him and is worthy of its own video.
Brilliant! As usual a brilliant artist dwarfs every other field or profession.
thank you for that!
Thank you for this insightful reflection on this great master. One feels immediately uplifted by that confidence and utter beauty of the merest strokes that portray so much meaning and depth. The charcoal portraits alone feel like a collection of personal friends as Sargent takes us by the hand so gently and into the soul and character of each unique individual. Your comparison with Michelangelo’s Sistine Chapel seems most apt🌹❤️🙌🏼👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽
Thank you for your comments, much appreciated
Thank you so much for your videos. By compiling them you have made an indentation of yourself as the best art history program online. 🎉

13:36 use of grids?
Awesome talk
Thanks
Wonderful!
I've seen other versions of "the prophet in white" @13:00 before. I didn't know he inspired them. Somethimes the figure in white is painted as a woman.
That was awesome
brilliant thank you !
He certainly painted his subjects, male and female, to look good! You can’t blame him for that, it was a commercial business he was employed in. But there’s no doubting his talent.
great video, would love to see you do one on j c leyendecker!
Great suggestion!
Thank you.
Thank you
❤
What amount of time did he use for the average charcoal drawings
Hello sir, can you make a video on Edmund Leighton? I love him
Am I losing my mind, or is the narrator’s accent go in and out from English to American?
You, are, losing, your, mind.
You're spot on. I noticed this too. Like what in the actual f is going on with this guy's accent?
I noticed it too and had to rewind it a bit to check. I was thinking maybe he edited after a few months on a different continent?
A.I doesn't know the difference yet I suppose
Artificial intelligence
And Thomas McKeller was simply a figment of everyone's imagination.
Good ol' Tom, yes.
what is he means when he mention industrious there?
It means 'Hard-working'
Can’t emphasize enough the importance of middle tones-key to success of drawing, henceforth painting.

Salamat po
Search beautiful movement @6:13 I could dance with her! 👌🏽
HA......I SCOFF.......SARGENT TRACED EVERYTHING HE EVER DREW - MANY WERE THE TIMES THAT PEOPLE WOULD RUSH INTO HIS STUDIO AFTER HEARING MUDEROUS SCREAMS, ONLY TO FIND SARGENT HOLDING HIS SUBJECT DOWN AND TRACING THEIR LIKENESS ONTO A CANVAS!!!!!!!
LOL!!!!!!!
SARGENT WAS A WONDER AND ONE WHO WORKED HIS ARTISTIC GIFT INTO A LFE OF GIVING US SOME GREAT ART TO ADMIRE - BRAVO TO SARGENT AND TO THIS VIDEO - GOOD JOB!!!!!!!
"......at his mother's knees " . Lucky him. I had no influences

I did not know art schools existed until adulthood ! Way sad.
He had loads of help from his mum
Saturnino Herrán painted as skillfully and dramatically as Sargent.
Just learned about Saturnino this year. Saw a couple of paintings At MUNAL in CDMX. La Ofrenda is absolutely amazing.
Great artists but couldn't brake free.
i would never paint a portrait of a subject the way they see themselves. I would only paint them in a way that shows their hidden selves or their true selves.
For many decades art books did not tell about measuring until Burt Dodson. I could have been way better sooner. J. Aristides and other authoritative authors were not publishing DECADES ago. Progress could have then been sooner . W.T. Foster publications were not in any way helpful to me. I had the struggle of deciphering knowledge from MANY books.
I have the highest regard for Sargent but to compare his work to Michael Angelo's work ( cough, cough ) surely you jest. Let's keep it real folks, there is no comparison.
Yeppp Michael has nothing on Sergeant
@@IGarrettI - Ha,ha. Your comment is so silly it doesn't deserve a response. How old are you young lady? Eleven?
