Sargent was one of the finest watercolourists in history & he used that genius to depict flesh & mood in a manner that has rarely been surpassed. Man with Red Drapery (c1904), Study of a Male Nude Figure (1904) & Studies of a Male Nude Reclining (c1904)

d’Inverno was an important model for Sargent too & appears to have been his type with his 1970s ‘Frisco macho good looks. Nicola d’Inverno (c1888), Head of a Young Man (c1900) & Figure Study (c1904). The latter is d’Inverno posing for him.

Sargent was an outsider; an American abroad. He was further set apart by his sexuality. Described in the euphemism of the time as a ‘lifelong bachelor’, he was in fact gay & fascinated with men. Bartholomy Magagnosco (c1875), Frank O’Meara (c1876), Young Man in Reverie (1876)

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!
