This book is a celebration of the famous painting which launched Sargent as a fashionable portrait painter and made Lady Agnew's name as a society celebrity. The story of Sargent and Lady Agnew is recounted in the essay and catalogue by Julia Rayer Rolfe, Librarian at the National Gallery of Scotland. Three leading scholars in the fields of fine art, history and music have contributed essays which serve to put the portrait into a wider context: Kenneth McConkey, Professor of Art History at the University of Northumbria at Newcastle; David Cannadine, Professor of History at Columbia University, New York, and Wilfrid Mellers, Emeritus Professor of Music at the University of York.

"The works from the Bonna Collection are illustrated in color, and whenever possible, at their actual sizes. They are arranged chronologically by the artist's date of birth and are grouped according to the main artistic schools. This volume is introduced by an interview with Jean Bonna by George Goldner. Each drawing is then described in an entry, many of which have comparative illustrations that shed further light on individual works."--BOOK JACKET.
