Corner of a Garden 1879

"Corner of a Garden" is an oil painting created by John Singer Sargent in 1879. This small-scale work captures a moment in a lush garden with a vibrant palette of greens, reds, and whites. Sargent uses bold, loose brushstrokes to depict a variety of flowers, including hollyhocks and poppies, creating a sense of immediacy and energy. The dark background and shadowed shapes suggest a sense of depth and mystery, adding to the overall charm of this intimate Impressionist-style painting.
