Описание: The story of the extraordinary collaboration behind one of John Singer Sargents renowned late masterpieces

In 1916, John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) met Thomas Eugene McKeller (1890-1962), a young African American elevator attendant, at Bostons Hotel Vendome. McKeller became the principal model for Sargents murals in the new wing of the citys Museum of Fine Arts, among the painters most ambitious works. Sargents nude studies and sketches from this project attest to a close collaboration between the two men that unfolded over nearly ten years. Featuring drawings given by Sargent to Isabella Stewart Gardner and published in full for the first time, a portrait of McKeller, and archival materials reconstructing his life and relationship with Sargent, this book opens new avenues into artist-model relationships and transforms our understanding of Sargents iconic American paintings. Essays offer the first biography of McKeller and a window onto African American life in early-20th-century Boston. They also address the artists sexuality, his models, and questions of race and identity.
