JOHN SINGER SARGENT. Market Place

Market Place. Artist: John Singer Sargent (American, Florence 1856-1925 London). Dimensions: 10 x 13 9/16 in. (25.4 x 34.4 cm)
Mat: 16 × 22 in. (40.6 × 55.9 cm)
Framed (standard exhibition frame): 18 1/4 × 24 1/4 × 1 1/8 in. (46.4 × 61.6 × 2.9 cm). Date: 1890s.
This scene could represent a caravansary in Egypt, Greece, or Turkey (which Sargent visited in 1890-91) or a market in Spain or Tangier (which Sargent visited in 1895). The earthy palette, accented by blues and purples, and the fluid technique typify the artist's watercolor style in the 1890s. Broad washes suggest the shadowed interior spaces beneath the arcades, and indeterminate forms appear in the courtyard amid clusters of urns and containers. Sargent's cursory graphite underdrawing is clearly visible, especially in the architecture.
