About ‘Neapolitan Children Bathing, John Singer Sargent’
Neapolitan Children Bathing, John Singer Sargent
Sargent developed this painting from pencil sketches and oil studies made during his travels in southern Italy. Local children bask in the heat of a lazy summer’s day. A young boy wearing a flotation device looks toward the sea, where the head of a swimmer bobs above the surface. Thinly applied washes of blue and green indicate the calm water, while thicker strokes suggest the texture of cresting waves and grainy sand.
