Beatriice Goelet 1890

"Beatrice" is an oil on canvas painting by American artist John Singer Sargent, completed in 1890. The painting depicts a young girl, Beatrice Goelet, standing in a richly decorated dress, her hands clasped in front of her. The subject's solemn expression and the presence of a bird in a cage behind her create a sense of contemplation and introspection. The intricate details of the subject's attire and the dark background contribute to the overall sense of elegance and formality characteristic of Sargent's portraiture.
