Year
In Context
January: he accepts
a commission
for Some General Officers of the Great War [p].
May: he returns to
Boston for further
work on the Museum of Fine Arts rotunda murals. His sister Emily and
Niece
Reine accompany him.
Back in London at
the Royal Academy, Gassed (1918) [p]
is named picture of the year.
October: installs
the last two panels
at the Boston
Public Library -- Synagogue and Church.
The center panel of
the east wall
was never finished which was to be the Sermon on the Mount thus
linking the Hebrew and the Christian faith at a point of transformation
for Christianity in the New Testament.

The Nude Studies
For the most part,
the nudes where
done in study for the Boston
Public Library murals as well as the Boston
Museum of Fine Arts murals.
Dating of these
studies and drawings
are problematic at best. In some cases they can be linked with a
specific
mural and therefore narrowed, but in many cases they can't. I have left
the dating done by the museums -- which in many cases are just guesses.
I've included all of them under the year 1919 since he seems to have
been
working almost exclusively on the murals during this time.
The male nudes have
raised speculation
as to Sargent's sexual orientation -- for further discussion on this
see: Was
Sargent gay?
