It\u2019s the scene of John Singer Sargent\u2019s dining table with a white tablecloth. And all these things are kind of set out on the table that you can\u2019t really tell what they are because of the way Sargent\u2019s painted them. He has a really sketchy brushstroke going on. And then there\u2019s a chair that kind of fades into the tablecloth and some furniture in the background and things hanging on the wall. This one, it\u2019s kind of mysterious what time of day it is. There\u2019s a really bright light so you know it\u2019s either maybe morning or evening. It feels like morning to me because of how bright it is and the side that it\u2019s coming in. It\u2019s interesting that we don\u2019t really know what\u2019s on the table, I think. It inspires a lot of stories maybe you could think about. If it\u2019s breakfast and he\u2019s set it out and decided to paint it afterwards or maybe it\u2019s left from the night before and he just never cleaned up. And it also adds this personal touch that you know it\u2019s Sargent\u2019s dining room. So you know he\u2019s kind of sitting inside being cozy and comfortable in his own home.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Audio by Annabella Boatwright<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1005,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[9,6],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-192","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-19th-century","category-third-floor","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1005"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=192"}],"version-history":[{"count":12,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":460,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/192\/revisions\/460"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=192"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=192"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/sites.smith.edu\/teenaudioguide\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=192"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
