Captain John Spicer 1901

"Captain John Spicer" is an oil painting by John Singer Sargent from 1901, depicting the subject standing against a dark background in a formal three-piece suit, holding his hat and walking stick. This portrait, like many of Sargent's, showcases the artist's mastery of realism and his ability to capture the personality of his sitters. The painting is currently in a private collection and measures 160 cm by 99.8 cm, reflecting the grand scale of many of Sargent's portrait commissions.
