Three sisters in white gowns, Mary, Madeline and Pamela Wyndham, are grouped on a sofa in the drawing room of their parents' London house, with a portrait of their mother by G. F. Watts hanging in the gloom above them. Sargent showed it at the Royal Academy in 1900, where it was nicknamed 'The Three Graces', and it is one of the grandest of his group portraits. The Metropolitan Museum of Art bought it in 1927.
This full-bleed edition prints the work edge to edge from a high-resolution scan of the original, very slightly cropped (a few percent at most) to fit the sheet. The gallery edition shows the whole work, uncropped. The original is in the public domain.
Where it works
A grand portrait of three sisters in white for a living room, dining room or stair wall, framed in dark wood. It needs a dark or warm wall, deep green, burgundy or chocolate, and makes a gift for sisters.
