Featuring oils, watercolors, and rare studies, this volume highlights his innovative techniques and modern compositional strategies. Highly rated and essential for collectors and art professionals, it offers both stunning reproductions and deep scholarly insight. ## Description From 1900 to 1907, John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) traveled considerably, visiting the Alps, Italy, Spain, Norway, and Palestine. In Palestine in 1905, he painted a significant group of oils and watercolors as well as a group of studies of the Bedouin. It was during this burst of artistic production that he painted The Mountains of Moab (Tate Gallery, London), which was the first pure landscape he ever exhibited (Royal Academy, 1906). In Italy and Spain, Sargent painted parks, gardens, fountains, and statues, subjects that reveal his taste for the high style of Renaissance and Mannerist art and for the romantic grandeur of deserted spaces. As evidenced by the works in this new volume, Sargent reinvented himself as a landscape painter during his travels. Expressing a finely developed sense of modernity, he selected quirky angles of vision and used a range of compositional strategies—compression, foreshortening, abrupt croppings, and receding perspectives—in a manner that is quasi-photographic. He exploited the material qualities of pigment, and the impasto is often so thickly applied that figure and landscape seem to dissolve together creating rich, near abstract surface patterns. The restless handling and dynamic compositional rhythms act in creative tension with the artist's more traditional subject matter, generating notions of instability and ambiguity that are distinctly modern in character. Review: Great book- totally love it! - I couldn't be happier with and more thankful for Volume 7 in this monograph series of extraordinary scholarship and lovely reproductions of John Singer Sargent's paintings. Volume 7 is the perfect companion to Volume 6 John Singer Sargent: Venetian Figures and Landscapes 1898-1913: Complete Paintings: Volume VI , one of my very favorite go-to books to enjoy this fine artist's work. I thoroughly disagree with 2 of the previous reviews; I'm so glad that I decided to buy this book in spite of them. With what eyes does one look at these beautiful paintings and call them cr@p? Yes, it is a catalogue raisonné. There are many oils, as well as watercolors included. Yes, Sargent was prolific and enjoyed painting watercolors as he left off painting society portraits. This volume is reflective of that. Moreover, Sargent is regarded as one of the finest and most successful proponents of the watercolor medium to have ever lived. Surely, the few unfinished watercolor studies that are included enlighten the viewer as to Sargent's working methods in a way that written language cannot. 'Finished' or 'unfinished', they are a delight to the eye that loves beauty. This book is highly recommended and worth every cent, both for it's incisive scholarship and for the high quality and volume of color reproductions. Review: Another great Sargent volume! - There a few ridiculous reviews of this book, including a one star review. I'm not sure what book they got, but it wasn't this one. This is every bit as wonderful as the other six volumes in this series. A few people complained about the quality of the reproductions. If you read the captions you would realize that some of the reproductions are from "untraced" paintings. They put in the only photo available. This is a catalog raisonne ( may have spelled that wrong) it is not just a book of nice reproductions. If they want a coffee table book of full page photos, there are many available. Anyway, as a painter, I love studies, sketchy watercolors and the like. Sargent remains for me one the most talented artists ever. Has anyone ever shown such "joy" through paint? Such breadth of technique in so many areas? Not that I know of. This only confirms that and I hope the next volume arrives soon! I'm scared they may quit or not finish. ## Features - Used Book in Good Condition ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #4,289,607 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #1,319 in Human Figure Art (Books) #2,203 in Landscape & Seascape Art #2,232 in Landscape Painting | | Customer Reviews | 4.6 out of 5 stars 53 Reviews | ## Images ![John Singer Sargent: Figures and Landscapes, 1900-1907: The Complete Paintings, Volume VII (Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art) - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/71UovBR4GeL.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great book- totally love it! *by J***R on November 17, 2012* I couldn't be happier with and more thankful for Volume 7 in this monograph series of extraordinary scholarship and lovely reproductions of John Singer Sargent's paintings.

I'm more of a picture person than someone who knows a lot about his life so I can't say much to the information that is presented in the book as I've yet to read it in-depth, but I appreciate the many drawings and paintings of his that are showcased. ## Frequently Bought Together - John Singer Sargent: Figures and Landscapes, 1900-1907 (The Paul Mellon Centre for Studies in British Art) - John Singer Sargent: Figures and Landscapes, 1914-1925: The Complete Paintings, Volume IX: 0001 --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.gr/products/8787535-john-singer-sargent-figures-and-landscapes-1900-1907-the-complete](https://www.desertcart.gr/products/8787535-john-singer-sargent-figures-and-landscapes-1900-1907-the-complete) --- *Product available on Desertcart Greece* *Store origin: GR* *Last updated: 2026-09-12*
