Like Gainsborough, Sargent was a superb portraitist & indeed like the English painter he was not keen on painting heads. Gainsborough liked painting kids & beautiful women & Sargent was of the same mind. Sargent was so sought after that he chose who to paint, however!

Thread: Anders Zorn (1860-1920) was a Swedish painter who was successful in his day, but is now out of fashion. A gifted society portraitist, his work raises issues over the portrayal of women in the past & how male artists see women now, let’s take a look. He died on this day

Hans Holbein (1497-1543) is famed as a court portraitist to King Henry VIII as well as painting friends in London. One of the finest of these portraits is that of Georg Gisze (1532), a Hanseatic merchant based in the city. The work is populated by symbolism

7/ Joshua Reynolds (1723 -1792). It's easy to forget how deeply Reynolds admired Rembrandt. And how frequently he measured himself against him! Reynolds must be the most prolific British self-portraitist. He painted himself at every step of the journey through life.

4/ Élisabeth Vigée-Lebrun (1755-1842). Vigée-Lebrun's tragedy is that she's firmly linked in the public imagination with her patron Marie Antoinette. But she was a pioneering self-portraitist. Intimacy, warmth and an awareness of her own beauty were her gifts to art.
