The background appears subtle and dark, accentuating the luminescence of the women’s attire and their serene expressions. Sargent’s masterful application of oil paint renders the textures of the fabric and flesh with remarkable realism, encapsulating the dignified presence of the subjects and the luxurious atmosphere of their surroundings.
