John Singer Sargent At Torre Galli Ladies In A Garden Painting Postcard

RA* This is a beautiful undated but modern published official postcard from Londons Royal Academy Of Arts for this great 1910 painting by John Singer Sergent called At Torre Galli Ladies In A Garden with artist details, dates, dimensions etc & Royal Academy Of Arts logo on reverse being the official souvenir from when exhibited unused and mint.

This view was painted at the Villa Torre Galli, near Florence where Sargent stayed in 1910 with friends who included the artists Sir William Blake Richmond, Wilfrid and Jane de Glehn. The Villa, which was owned by the marchese Farinola, features in several of Sargent's works. Its colonnaded loggia opened onto a picturesque garden allowing the framing of compositional stage settings. Here, three women are positioned towards the edge of the picture frame, moving from the loggia to the garden. Wrapped in cashmere shawls, they appear self-contained and uncommunicative giving the painting a decorative rather than narrative focus. The model for all three women is believed to have been Jane de Glehn.
