Description: | Glass mount; 24.6 x 34.8 Inscr. [by Beatrix Whistler]; b.r. "o" CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) The models for this pastel are likely to be two of the three Pettigrew sisters, popular models with Whistler, as well as with other artists. It is generally understood that the symbol "o", found on some of Whistler's works, was a mark of appreciation written either by Whistler himself, or his wife Beatrice.
