Imens i livet hos John Singer Sargent

Hele livet

1895–1919
The “Triumph of Religion” murals for the Boston Public Library
From 1895 through 1919, for almost thirty years, Sargent works on his largest-scale work, the mural decorations “Triumph of Religion” for the Boston Public Library, showing religion's progress from pagan superstition to the ascension of Christianity; he never completes the final mural of the cycle.
last decade of life
Watercolours of Maine, Florida and the American West
In the last decade of his life Sargent produces many watercolours in Maine, Florida and the American West, of fauna, flora and native peoples.
1918
Commissioned as a war artist
On his return to England in 1918 after a visit to the United States Sargent is commissioned as a war artist by the British Ministry of Information; he depicts scenes from the Great War in his large painting “Gassed” and in many watercolours.
Good Friday 1918
His niece Rose-Marie killed in the shelling of Paris
On Good Friday 1918 his niece Rose-Marie dies in the shelling of the church of St Gervais in Paris; Sargent is deeply affected by her death.
late 1919
The row over the murals “The Church” and “The Synagogue”
The paintings “The Church” and “The Synagogue”, installed in late 1919, portray Christianity as a lovely, radiant young woman and Judaism as a blind, ugly hag, and seem to Boston's Jews to show Judaism defeated; Sargent is both surprised and hurt by the criticism and in the end abandons his plan to finish the murals.
1922
Co-founder of the Grand Central Art Galleries
In 1922 Sargent co-founds New York City's Grand Central Art Galleries together with Edmund Greacen, Walter Leighton Clark and others; he actively participates in the galleries and their academy, the Grand Central School of Art, until his death.
