I just picked this off of a web site dedicated to Sargent, and I have already posted it in this section of SOG. However, I thought it might do well in this subject, so if the moderator chooses, she may delete one of these.

The following comments tell some interesting things about Sargeng, in general, and how he worked while doing one of his famous charcoal sketches.

(Mrs. Claude Beddington) The first time I ever saw Sargent was in the [1900s] at a big dinner-party given at their Bryanston Square house by Mr. and Mrs. Arthur Wagg, a hospitable couple generally reputed to have one of the best chefs in London.

I confided in the gentleman who took me in to dinner. . .
