Description: | Unmounted (1) s. in stone with butterfly; c.l.
(2) s. in pencil with butterfly; l.r.
(3) stamp; v. square stamp of Miss Rosalind Birnie Philip CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) PRINT WAY, Thomas Robert; (English; 1861-1913) The theme of the youthful model posing in drapery appears in Whistler's work in every medium from the 1860s on. "The Dancing Girl" seems to be his first representation in lithography of the female figure in motion. Whistler works with the same light, rhythmical touch he used when sketching in chalk or pastel. This lithograph was printed by Thomas Way in 1890. (See also GLAHA 49047/49276/49277/49279-49281/49561).
