Three Stars
A bit disappointing, thought it would include his mural works. Sargent's watercolours are a tad repetitive.

Amazing art book. I love this series

Superb: even for those who own many art books. Accurate color reproductions to the originals (I have seen many exhibits and often the color catalogs are atrocious and not worth buying). Fascinating collection of sketches, similar work (done at same location... watercolor and oils together, etc.), and even some small photos of the location! Very thorough and thoughtfully done. This is a book for the serious artist to dig deep in understanding Sargent's mind and methodology. In fact a whole chapter is dedicated to understanding JSS's process with modern forensic methods such as UV photo analysis, raking light, infrared, etc. Bonus of extra crisp detail plates of choice artwork closeups (showing brush marks and microscopic color shifts)... closer than a museum will allow you to get, even with your nose up to the art! Many new works I have not seen previously (from private collections). Ormond's entire JSS series is great. This volume is outstanding.
