Art, Books & Culture Research Group at The Beecroft: Saturday 25th January 2025 – The Art of John Singer Sargent

I hope you’ll be able to join us on Saturday 25th January, 11.15am (for about an hour & a half)

at The Beecroft Gallery, Victoria Avenue, Southend-on-Sea

to continue our theme of artists working across the art worlds of late-19th century London and Paris by exploring the paintings of John Singer Sargent (1856-1925) from glamorous society portraits to more informal Impressionist pictures and, of course, the extraordinary drama that is:

Ellen Terry as Lady Macbeth
[1889; which is in the Tate Britain collection; image c/o artuk.org]

Lots to talk about! Do come along if you’re able! We’ll be in The Beecroft’s Lecture Theatre. A £10 charge on the door covers room hire as well as coffee afterwards at The Jazz Centre downstairs.
