Born in Boston, Charles Sprague Pearce joined fellow expatriate artists and moved to Paris in 1882, working in the studio of Léon Bonnat, just as John Singer Sargent and Thomas Eakins had before him.
Charles Sprague Pearce and his masterpiece 'Sainte Genevieve' is a fine example of Naturalist painting. Pearce is noted for his elegant portrayal of his subjects. He worked in a glass extension on his estate in order to get the proper lighting for his work.
