Wilfrid de Glehn (1870-1951), one of England's leading Impressionists, was a close friend of the important American expatriate John Singer Sargent. De Glehn held an important role in Anglo-American art circles, fraternizing with a group of prominent cultural figures that included painters Frank D. Millet and J. Alden Weir, architects Stanford White and Charles McKim, the collector Isabella Stewart Gardner, and the novelist Edith Wharton. His ties to the United States were further strengthened in 1904 when he married Jane Erin Emmet, a member of the well known Emmet family of painters. De Glehn was one of Sargent's closest friends; the two artists painted together in England, Italy, Corfu, and Spain. The 104-page catalogue, which includes 47 full-page color illustrations, features an essay and entries by Laura Wortley, de Glehn's biographer and a noted scholar of British Impressionism.
