The exhibition "John Singer Sargent. Dazzling Paris" plunges us into the pivotal period of the American painter's career. Featuring over 90 works, it traces his meteoric rise in the French capital. In 1874, John Singer Sargent arrived in Paris at the age of eighteen to train with Carolus-Duran. He remained there until the mid-1880s, before moving to London at the age of thirty, forced to leave France after the scandal caused by his masterpiece, Madame X. During this decade in Paris, the artist produced some of his finest work, marked by remarkable inventiveness and a boldness that challenged the conventions of the time.
