reviewed Old Poisons, New Problems on September 24, 2009 Old Poisons, New Problems
I have long loved this painting. When I lived in Boston I would often walk to the MFA and spend time with it, and had a print of it over the mantle at home. This book is exactly what is promised, a biography of the painting. It encompasses the lives of the Boit family members; tells the story of what happened to each of the girls and their parents;, gives us context of where Sargent was developmentally and socially before and when he painted it; his relationship with the family; and provides reviews of, and evolving thoughts about, the painting. Hirshler's book is fascinating. It is as detailed as details are available. And it's also the tale of wealthy Americans involved with inner circles of the expat crowd in the late 1800s, including Henry James, as they lived in Paris and Tuscany, Boston, Brookline and Newport. It is a biography of the painting that is worthy of the painting, and I am very pleased with it.
