"Atlas and the Hesperides" is a painting by the American expatriate artist John Singer Sargent, completed in 1925. This work is part of Sargent's later body of art, which includes murals and large-scale compositions, diverging from the society portraits that had established his reputation. The painting is based on the Greek myth of Atlas, the Titan condemned to hold up the sky for eternity, and the Hesperides, the nymphs of the evening and golden light of sunset, who were entrusted with the care of a garden in which golden apples grew.

Sargent's depiction of this mythological scene is notable for its dynamic composition and the interplay of light and shadow, which reflects his mastery of these elements throughout his career. The painting is characterized by its classical grandeur and the dramatic tension evident in the figures' poses and expressions. "Atlas and the Hesperides" is a testament to Sargent's skill in handling mythological subjects, imbuing them with a sense of immediacy and emotional depth.

The artwork is part of a series of murals that Sargent was commissioned to create for the Boston Public Library's McKim Building, where it can still be viewed today. These murals were intended to represent the theme of the "Triumph of Religion," and "Atlas and the Hesperides" contributes to this overarching narrative by exploring themes of duty, struggle, and the divine.

As with many of Sargent's works, "Atlas and the Hesperides" has been analyzed for its technical brilliance and its place within the broader context of his artistic oeuvre. The painting remains an important example of Sargent's late style and his contributions to American art, as well as a significant piece within the collection of murals at the Boston Public Library.
