"Study of Polly Barnard for 'Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose'" is a preparatory work by the American artist John Singer Sargent, created as part of the process leading to his famed 1885-1886 painting "Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose." This study is one of several that Sargent produced while meticulously planning the larger work, which is celebrated for its evocative portrayal of childhood innocence and the enchanting effect of twilight.

The study captures a close-up view of Polly Barnard, one of the young daughters of Sargent's friend and fellow artist Frederick Barnard. Polly, along with her sister Dolly, served as the models for the two little girls depicted in the final painting, which shows them lighting Chinese lanterns in a lush garden at dusk. In this particular study, Sargent focuses on the figure of Polly, examining her pose, the fall of light on her face and clothing, and the nuances of her expression. Such studies were crucial for Sargent to perfect the interplay of natural light and the intricate details of the figures before committing to the larger canvas.

Sargent's "Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose" is renowned for its technical brilliance and its atmospheric quality, capturing the transient effects of light with a sensitivity that has drawn comparisons to the work of the Impressionists. The study of Polly Barnard is an important piece in understanding Sargent's working method and the careful preparation that underpinned his masterful compositions. It offers a glimpse into the artist's creative process and the painstaking attention to detail that characterized his approach to painting.

The final painting, "Carnation, Lily, Lily, Rose," is held in the collection of the Tate Britain in London and is considered one of Sargent's masterpieces. The study itself, as a significant artifact of the artist's preparatory work, provides art historians and enthusiasts with valuable insights into the evolution of one of the late 19th century's most enchanting and beloved works.
