About Katharine Pratt

The artwork, titled “Katharine Pratt,” is an oil on canvas portrait created by the artist John Singer Sargent in 1890. This piece, embodying the Realism art movement, measures 102.6 by 76.5 centimeters and is held in a private collection.

In the portrait, a young woman is depicted in a contemplative and poised manner, her right hand gently resting on her chest while her left hand is placed on her hip. The woman is dressed in a flowing white garment, which contrasts with the dark, indistinct background, highlighting her presence and the delicate details of her attire. The artist’s mastery is evident in the lifelike rendering of her facial features, the texture of the fabric, and the subtle play of light and shadow that adds depth and dimension to the composition. The overall effect is one of quiet elegance and refined beauty, characteristic of Sargent’s portraits.
