The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit was commissioned to Sargent in 1882 by his good friend Edward Darley Boit. The four girls in the painting are the daughters of Edward Darley Boit: Mary Louisa, Florence, Jane, and Julia.
The four girls pose
for the artist in this painting in the spacious home. The composition of this
painting does not follow the traditional stodgy pattern of group portraiture
but rather mimics Velázquez's painting Las Meninas. The youngest
daughter sits on the carpet in the middle of the painting, dressed in white and
holding a pink Barbie doll with childlike interest. The girl on the left,
wearing a similar red apron, has her hands on her back, straightening her body
and looking forward. The two oldest girls stand at the intersection of light
and dark, with one of them shown at a sideways angle. Inside this spacious room
sits a pair of large porcelain vases from Tamachi, Japan, where Japanese
ceramic vases are a symbol of their fluid family life.
Initially, the
subject of The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit was seen as a
group of playful girls until later, when a more abstract interpretation of the
painting was developed. The four girls range in age from 4 to 14 years old and
are arranged in order of age. The two oldest girls are in shadow, and the
artist's placement of them alongside the noble yet fragile vase makes one
ponder the symbolism of the work, perhaps suggesting that they are about to say
goodbye to their childhood and step into that unknowable future.
The Daughters of Edward Darley Boit is described as the most psychologically compelling work
of Sargent's entire painting career.
