Another John Singer Sargent. This is Dr. Pozzi at Home, painted in 1881 in oils on canvas. I love the glasslike slipper, but what's with all the fingers entangled in the ropes of the robe he's wearing? #PortraitChallenge Day47/100 #The100DayProject #100DayProject #FountainPen #WaterColour #Sketchbook #Hobonichi #InkyParker51

@Parker51 Well done.

I'm actually reading a book about Samuel Pozzi. Very interesting. A gynecologist who wasn’t happy with his marriage and was a time the lover of Sarah Bernhardt among other ladies of the good society. And was a French Deputy. I'll work soon on this portrait. 🙂

@Parker51 That’s another book about him. The one I'm reading is from Julian Barnes and starts from this portrait.
