The works of James McNeill Whistler : a study

Cary, Elisabeth Luther, 1867-1936 · 1907 · New York : Moffat, Yard & Co. · 8 pictures

A 1907 New York study of the works of the American painter James McNeill Whistler by Elisabeth Luther Cary, written for an art-interested general readership and illustrated with reproductions of his paintings and etchings. The pictures show tonal, dim portraiture, a soft-focus etched head, a rotated painted figure scene, and a narrow interior with figures at a table, and a designer might take from them the value of restrained near-monochrome tone and loose hatched line.

Whistler, James McNeill, 1834-1903
