View this post on Instagram Fun fact: #JohnSingerSargent completed this portrait of Louise Pomeroy Inches by #ChristmasEve in 1887, as noted in the diary of Inches' cousin-in-law Edward Darley Boit. We think her brilliant crimson evening gown is just perfect for a holiday party! . . Stop by this holiday week to see the painting and the original dress (later much altered) reunited in "Exhibition Lab: Sargent and Fashion." Just remember, the Museum is closed on Christmas Day, but will reopen at 10 am on December 26! A post shared by Museum of Fine Arts, Boston (@mfaboston) on Dec 24, 2018 at 7:01am PST
