1902 (46 years old)
Year In Context

January finds Sargent at the Welbeck Abbey and there he paints The Duchess of Portland.

In the spring he travels to Spain for three weeks at Granada. Then he travels to the south of France were he does a watercolor of Mrs. Ralph Curtis and her daughter Sylvia [n/a] at the Villa Amicitia, Beaulieu-sur-Mer.

At the Royal Academy he shows eight portraits including Lord Ribblesdale, The Acheson Sisters, and The Misses Hunter.

Rodin, presumably after seeing these stately portraits, declares Sargent to be the Van Dyck of our time. (what did he mean by that?)

After a most successful decade of the 1890's Sargent is reaching the pinnacle of portraiture. His skills are never more in demand and commissions come streaming in. Still, each painting for John is an arduous struggle with himself and his art. Nothing is easy. In a candid letter from a sitter of 1902 describes Sargent's inner drive and tension as infectious (see letter).

In August he travels to Saa Fee, Switzerland with Peter and Ginx Harrison, then travels to the Italian lakes.

He and Paul-César Helleu are sketched by their friend Giovanni Boldini, possibly in the Italian Lakes.

In September through October he's in Venice.

November: he goes to Naples and then Rome.
