John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) was restless, and he sought to reconcile the demands of commissioned portraiture with modern currents. Some days he painted for money, and some days he painted for fun. Due to the scandal of his painting "Madame X" (Virginie Amelie Avegno Gautreau) he retreated to London where he remained for the rest of his life.

John Singer Sargent trabajaba sin descanso, y trato de reconciliar las demandas de los retratos que le pedian, con corrientes modernas. Algunos dias pintaba por dinero y otros dias pintaba por placer. Debido al escandalo de su pintura "Madame X" (Virginie Amelie Avegno Gautreau) se retiro a Londres donde vivio por el resto de su vida.
