The artwork titled “Frank-O’Meara” was created by John Singer Sargent in 1876. This distinguished piece, rendered in oil on canvas, belongs to the Realism movement and measures 44.45 x 39.37 cm. It is classified as a portrait and is presently held in a private collection.
The artwork features a detailed and sensitive portrayal of a young man with contemplative eyes and a slight mustache, set against a dark, almost black background that accentuates the figure’s features. His attire is simple yet elegant, with a white collar peeking from a dark coat, and his expression exudes a sense of introspection or quiet confidence. The composition showcases Sargent’s masterful technique in realism, emphasizing lifelike details and subtle expressions that capture the essence of the subject with remarkable clarity.
