Madame X by John Singer Sargent
Madame X (1884)
John Singer Sargent | Realism/Impressionism | Oil on canvas
A beautiful woman in a black dress stands proudly, showing off her elegant profile. She looks like a movie star!
Did you know? This painting caused a big scandal! At the 1884 Paris Salon, one strap of her gown was painted slipping off her shoulder, and critics were shocked. Sargent later repainted the strap back into place.
