Description

John Singer Sargent's Gassed is a new book that brings together the story of an iconic painting and its significance in the art world. The painting, which measures six metres long, was created by John Singer Sargent in 1919 and has been the subject of extensive conservation work.

The book explores the history of the artwork and its composition, as well as its importance in the art world. It also features newly commissioned photography that brings the rich detail of the painting to life for new audiences.

Returning to IWM London after a six-year absence, the painting has been restored to its former glory, allowing readers to appreciate it in all its detail. This book provides a unique insight into one of the most significant paintings of the 20th century.
