This is a platinum print depicts John Singer Sargent as he paints Mrs. Fiske Warren and her daughter, Rachel, in the Gothic Room of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum.  Mr. Sargent is seen from the rear wearing dark pants and a light colored jacket.  He holds a painter’s palette in his hand to our left as he paints on the canvas with his hand to our right.  Both the painting and the two sitters are visible.  Mrs. Fiske Warren sits in a large wooden armed chair that is on a raised platform with her feet resting on a cushioned stool.  She wears a frilly high collared white long dress that has a scooped neckline.  There is a fuzzy white boa draped over her arm to our left that trails toward the floor.  She is light skinned and her medium colored hair is pulled up to frame her face.  She appears to be looking to our far left with a faint smile on her lips.  Her daughter Rachel is positioned slightly behind her mother to our right with her head resting on her mother’s shoulder.  Rachel is light skinned, her long brown hair falls over her shoulder to our right, and she gazes directly at the camera with a placid expression on her face. She wears light clothing that is not defined.  The stained-glass windows of the Gothic Room are visible in the background.  The rose shaped window has a dark curtain covering most of it and there are three rectangular windows visible.
