1884
Emily Sargent captures a serene Swiss moment in this 1884 watercolor of Vevey, a charming town resting on the shores of Lake Geneva. Notice how her fluid, confident washes of paint perfectly mimic the calm, reflective surface of the river, while the stone embankment and lush trees provide a sturdy, textured contrast to the open sky. Often overshadowed by her wildly famous brother John Singer Sargent, Emily was a highly skilled artist in her own right who traveled extensively, using her sketchbook to document the quiet, everyday beauty of European landscapes with remarkable sensitivity.
