The Sargent Gallery
The Sargent Gallery at the main branch of the Boston Public Library, in 1896 and 2021. These photos were taken before and after the completion of John Singer Sargent's mural "Triumph of Religion," which was painted over the course of 29 years and installed here between 1895 and 1919. The mural was never entirely finished, though, because he died in 1925 before the painting the final panel, which would have been installed in the large empty space on the right side of the scene.
