Description: | Royal stamp; v. square stamp of Miss Rosalind Birnie Philip PRINT WAY, Thomas Robert; (English; 1861-1913) CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) During July, 1894, Whistler initiated a series of images drawn in the garden behind his house at 110, rue du Bac. "The Man with a Sickle" depicts a workman cutting the grass. Whistler was unhappy with the drawing and ordered Way to destroy the stone. It is likely that Way followed this instruction as impressions of this image are very rare. This lithograph was printed by Thomas Way in 1894. (See also GLAHA 49182 - 49184/49186).
