Another Lady Reading

I was re-reading The Down East Dilettante just now & found this wonderful pastel from his posting on Sunday. Another lady resting in the shade of the garden & reading a book. One of my favorite blogs about architecture, design, landscape, arts, antiques, & other passing fancies from Maine, New England, & Points Yonder. Can't recommend it enough.

American John Singer Sargent (1856 - 1925) in European Gardens
John Singer Sargent was not actually brought up in America. Sargent was born in Florence, Italy, and spent his childhood & adolescence touring Europe with his American parents who had decided on a nomadic lifestyle abroad in pursuit of culture rather than a more secure existence back home.
