Painted during Sargent’s Florida expedition, this spontaneous watercolor captures American alligators with the same bravura brushwork he applied to society portraits. The artist’s fascination with exotic wildlife finds expression in fluid washes that suggest both the reptiles’ prehistoric stillness and the humid subtropical atmosphere.
