Lady Fishing - Mrs Ormond

Lady Fishing - Mrs Ormond

John Singer Sargent, 1889

Renowned portraitist John Singer Sargent initially made a small sketch of his sister Violet, fishing beside the river Avon in the picturesque Worcestershire village of Fladbury. The final painting is unfinished and Sargent has not added the long fishing rod.
