Mademoiselle Boussenet Duclos 1882

"Mademoiselle Boussenet Duclos" is a portrait by American artist John Singer Sargent, painted in 1882. This work, now in a private collection, depicts a young woman with a serious expression, dressed in a dark dress with gold accents. The portrait utilizes the artist's signature loose brushstrokes and a subtle palette, characteristic of his later work. Sargent's skill in capturing a sitter's likeness is evident in this piece, which reflects the artist's growing mastery of portraiture during this period.
