Description: | Circular, 43.8 x 43.8 x 3.7 None CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) The dozing child in this painting is unidentified, described only as a "local baby". It was painted in Etretat, Normandy, France, where Whistler stayed for a short time on his way to settle in Paris in autumn 1897. The handling of the paint within this work is fluid, giving a spontaneous effect, though it seems to have been left unfinished.
