Distinguished American-born artist (1856-1925) who spent most of his career as an expatriate in Europe. While he painted a variety of subjects in various media, his fame rests primarily on his evocative, penetrating society portraits. ALS in French, signed “John S. Sargent,” two pages on two adjoining sheets, 4 x 6, Arts Club (Hanover Square) letterhead, March 5th [no year]. Handwritten letter to an unknown female friend, in full (translated): “I am still in London despite your lovely letter and all the good reasons it contains. I will answer categorically. This is just a word for you not to expect Friday or Saturday. Your invitation makes me believe that you are cured of your bruise, which without seeming to me caused me anxiety. I will write to you soon.” In fine condition.
