Description: | Royal (1) s. in stone with butterfly; c.r.
(2) inscr.; v. "Behreedell / 111" CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) PRINT WAY, Thomas Robert; (English; 1861-1913) This is Whistler's second lithographic portrait of his sister-in-law, Ethel Birnie Philip. By manipulating several lithographic crayons in the execution of this work, Whistler achieved a range of subtle tonalities and a convincing sense of the figure's plasticity. In December, 1893, Whistler gave permission for this image to be published in the art journal, "The Studio". (See also GLAHA 49037 - 49039/49557/49630/49713 - 49716).
