He is famed for his portraiture of aristocratic subjects and these have been compared with the work of painters like Velázquez (1599–1660) and Van Dyck (1599–1641) for their theatrical quality. Portraits are probably what he is most known for, but Sargent painted many subjects with many mediums. In this week’s blog we will be exploring some of these other avenues and looking at the many sides of John Singer Sargent.**    Image Courtesy of Boston Library [Read More](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/john-singer-sargent-many-facets) 1 Comment [Click here to read/write comments](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/john-singer-sargent-many-facets#comments-listing) Topics: [Masterpieces of Art](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/masterpieces-of-art), [Art Movements](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/art-movements), [blog](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/blog), [john singer sargent](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/topic/john-singer-sargent) [All posts](https://blog.flametreepublishing.com/art-of-fine-gifts/all) ### Subscribe for email updates ### Posts by category -
