1979 Press Photo John Singer Sargent, Madame X sketch

Every photo in our collection is an original vintage print from a newspaper or news service archive, not a digital image. Please see our FAQ for more information.

Description
Caption: John Singer Sargent's sketch for "Madame X" (above) shows that he toyed with letting the straps of her gown droop. Instead, in the finished portrait (right), they are firmly hitched up.

The front and back of this photograph are pictured below.
