John Singer Sargent's "Head of Capri Girl" from 1878 depicts a young woman with a melancholic expression. The oil painting, now in a private collection, is a close-up study of the subject, highlighting her striking features and the loose, gestural brushstrokes of the artist. Sargent, known for his captivating portraits, captures the subtle nuances of her gaze and the soft, ethereal quality of her skin. This painting is a testament to Sargent's mastery of capturing both the physical beauty and emotional depth of his subjects.
