John Singer Sargents 'Carnation'

cazcap · January 28th, 2011, 03:47 PM

Need help please, I recall visiting a gallery in London and seeing a painting that is very very similar to John Singer Sargents 'Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose'. But I seem to recall that the painting I saw, apart from being very large was more than two little girls and that they were in more of a 'procession' format. I also thought that the girls were holding jars of fireflies.......Was I dreaming? Does this picture exist or have a had a total recall failure? Thanks

You weren't dreaming. I think I know the painting you are thinking of, but I don't recall the artist or subject offhand. If I can find it I'll let you know.

Thanks I'll keep my fingers crossed that you can remember as I would love to get a 'print' of it
Thanks
