Portrait of Mary Newbold Sargent

Mary Newbold Sargent

Mary Newbold Sargent was an artist active during the early 20th century, specifically documented in 1904. While biographical details are limited, her standing is established by the inclusion of her work in major collections, notably the Metropolitan Museum of Art.

The extant works associated with Sargent suggest a focus on travel studies and architectural depictions, primarily stemming from a sketchbook dating to 1904. The five recorded works held in museum collections reflect specific topographical subjects. These include two studies of Apostle's Well, two studies of the village Beth Jahlah (both dated 1904), and the study Benjamin's Tomb, also executed in 1904. The preservation of these unique drawings ensures the continuing documentation of her artistic record.

The scarcity of documented Mary Newbold Sargent prints and paintings means these existing studies are essential to understanding her output. Today, much of her material, along with related sketchbook pages, is available in the public domain, often accessible as high-quality prints for scholarly research and appreciation.
