=Portrait of a Boy, 1890= = = =Portrait of a Boy depicts a young Homer Saint-Gaudens, son of the painter's friend, sculptor Augustus Saint-Gaudens, and his mother. Sargent's representation of his subjects deviates from the sentimental portraiture of the time, catching the natural expression and posture of a boy who is not enthused about sitting for the artist.=
