Description: | Unmounted (1) s. in stone with butterfly; c.l.
(2) Watermark; O. W. P. & A. C. L. CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) PRINT GOULDING, Frederick (English; 1842-1909) This is a posthumous printing. After Whistler?s death in 1903, his heir and sister-in-law, Rosalind Birnie Philip, commissioned the London printer, Frederick Goulding, to print posthumous editions of many of Whistler?s lithographs. Between October 1903 and May 1904, Goulding pulled impressions from 94 stones and transferred and printed 10 previously untransferred lithographic drawings. "A Draped Model, Standing by a Sofa" was never printed in Whistler's lifetime. Although the dating of this image is uncertain, it was probably drawn in late November or early December of 1893.
