Ladies in the Shade Abriès 1912

"Ladies in the Shade Abriès" is a watercolor painting by John Singer Sargent, created in 1912. The work depicts two women, one partially obscured by a large hat, sitting under the shade of trees, with the colors and composition emphasizing their elegant forms and the dappled light. Sargent, known for his portraits and landscapes, captures a fleeting moment of leisure in this evocative study of feminine beauty.
