Description: | Royal s. in stone with butterfly; c.l. CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) PRINT CLOT, Auguste; (French; 19th-20th century) Miss Rosalind Birnie Philip identified the sitter in this drawing as her mother, Mrs Frances Birnie Philip. The portrait was most likely sketched at Whistler?s home on the rue du Bac in Paris during the autumn of 1897. This image was among Whistler?s last lithographic drawings and by the end of 1897 he had apparently given up lithography for good. (See also GLAHA 49227/49486).
