#mirr_art by John Singer Sargent

In August 1885 John Singer Sargent was on a boating trip when he glimpsed an enchanting scene in a garden at Pangbourne on the banks of the Thames:
children lighting lanterns hung among trees, lilies and rose bushes.

He described it to Robert Louis Stevenson as ‘a most paradisaic sight’, and it became the inspiration for what he came to call his ‘big picture’.
