It’s hard to imagine John Singer Sargent, the most sought-after portrait painter of the elegant gilded age of English drawing rooms, as a war artist. His war paintings have a deceptive glow about them that harkens back to the delicate shades and shapes of his portraits, but the subject matter is decidedly more jarring, the most notable being his painting Gassed.
