An Evening with John Singer Sargent
Considered the leading portrait painter of his generation, John Singer Sargent is one of our country’s most celebrated artists. Born to American parents in Italy, Sargent spent most of his life traveling and painting abroad. His first solo exhibition was in 1888 at Boston’s St. Botolph Club.
One-hundred-twenty-seven years later, the Wine and Food Society of Boston will gather in the same club for a special evening celebrating Sargent’s life through food and art. Chef Brad Hall will present six courses, inspired by Sargent’s time in France, Spain, Boston, Switzerland, and beyond. Each course has been carefully paired with matching wines, and a painting from Sargent’s life.
