...different matter. Like Helen of Troy's beauty, it is more often glowingly mentioned than accurately described. But three things might be said of it: it is technically practically flawless; it has beauty of color and vigorous line achieved with the fewest possible strokes; occasionally it fails in insight in spite of Sargent's far-famed "ability to render character."
