Description: | Glass mount; 34.8 x 24.6 s. with a butterfly; c.l. CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) Florence Leyland was the daughter of Whistler's patron, the Liverpool shipping magnate, F.R. Leyland. She was born in 1859 and in 1884 married the painter Val Pinsep. This is one of two studies in which Whistler was working out the colour scheme for an oil portrait of Florence Leyland, the other being "Florence Leyland in a green and orange dress" (MacDonald 1995 (523), GLAHA 46057).
