John Singer Sargent was an American expatriate artist, considered the “leading portrait painter of his generation” for his evocations of Edwardian-era luxury. He created roughly 900 oil paintings and more than 2,000 watercolors, as well as countless sketches and charcoal drawings. His oeuvre documents worldwide travel, from Venice to the Tyrol, Corfu, Spain, the Middle East, Montana, Maine, and Florida.
Born in Florence to American parents, he was trained in Paris before moving to London, living most of his life in Europe. He enjoyed international acclaim as a portrait painter.

Eugenia Huici Arguedas de Errázuriz (1860 – 1951) was a Chilean patron of modernism and a style leader of Paris from 1880 into the 20th century. Her spare taste as an interior designer was influential. Her circle of friends and protégés included Pablo Picasso, Igor Stravinsky, Jean Cocteau, and the poet Blaise Cendrars. She was of Basque descent, as was her husband’s Errázuriz family (es:Familia Errázuriz) originating in Aranaz, Navarre.
