The Musée d'Orsay’s fall exhibition explores the formative decade that American painter John Singer Sargent spent in Paris, bringing together over 90 works to trace Sargent’s artistic development. From his training under Carolus-Duran to the bold portraits that brought him fame—and infamy—the exhibition situates Sargent within the dynamic artistic and social world of 19th-century France and reveals how Paris shaped his style and legacy.

Please join us for an exclusive tour of John Singer Sargent. Dazzling Paris on Tuesday, January 6, 2026, at 9:00 a.m.

Event reserved for AFMO Sponsor-level members and above.
