That depends on who you're asking. For many contemporary artists and illustrators J.S.Sargent is important because of his marvelous painting technique. Sargent had an incredible talent for capturing the personality of his subjects, and for working with light and colour-values. He was furthermore able to work with different mediums (like oil, water color, pencil), and he explored many different subject in his art (like people, landscapes, interior scenes, oriental scenes). His brushwork is loose, and very very confident. The compositions in his paintings are intriguing as well! The popularity of Sargent has changed during the last decades, and it is in the last 20 something years that people have started appreciating his art again.
