EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases John Singer Sargent's famous painting, "Madame X (Madame Pierre Gautreau)" from 1883-84. Measuring at an impressive 207x110 cm, this oil on canvas masterpiece is housed in the prestigious Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City. Sargent's portrait of Madame Pierre Gautreau, also known as Virginie Amelie Avegno, caused quite a scandal when it was first exhibited at the 1884 Salon in Paris. The painting features Madame Gautreau wearing an off-the-shoulder dress with a daringly low strap, which was considered highly provocative for its time. The controversy surrounding this piece stems from its departure from traditional societal norms and expectations. With her shocking black dress and pale skin contrasting against the golden table backdrop, Madame Gautreau exudes an air of mystery and allure that captivated audiences then and continues to do so today. This portrait not only reflects the fashion trends of the Edwardian era but also challenges conventional notions of femininity and propriety. Sargent skillfully captures every detail of Madame Gautreau's profile while emphasizing her elegance through her pose and tiara. As one gazes upon this remarkable artwork, they are transported back to a time where art had the power to shock society and challenge established conventions. It serves as a testament to Sargent's talent as well as his ability to push boundaries within both American and European artistic circles.
