It was a cold and messy evening but that did not deter people from coming out to hear the Wellesley Historical Society’s program “The Enigma of John Singer Sargent” with author Paul Fisher. Undoubtedly the audience’s interest had been piqued by the “Fashioned By Sargent” show at the MFA. Fisher did not disappoint, further deepening the understanding and appreciation of Sargent’s talent. If you are a Sargent fan, and it’s hard not to be, Fisher’s book, “The Grand Affair: John Singer Sargent in his World”, is a worthy read. In case you missed it, watch the program here.
