Dear Art Educators,

This site is featured in Riverdeep Newsletter.
The Sargent Murals at Bostoon Public Library:
http://www.sargentmurals.bpl.org/

Born in Italy to American parents,
he spent most of his life in Europe, studying in both
France and Germany. He enjoyed early acceptance as an
important painter, especially as a talented portraitist
and painted two American Presidents, Woodrow Wilson and
Theodore Roosevelt.

"Color is an inborn gift, but appreciation of value is
merely training of the eye, which everyone ought to be
able to acquire."

- John Singer Sargent

I do have the murals site linked on this page:

Enjoy,

Judy Decker
