(3) Watermark; Pro Patria / F 1 CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) PRINT WAY, Thomas Robert; (English; 1861-1913) In a letter to Thomas Way, upon receiving the proofs of this image, Whistler wrote: "The little sitting figure in drapery I am immensely pleased with . . . " Whistler?s technique and his command of the lithographic materials allowed him to effectively capture the texture of the fine fabric that clings to the figure of the young girl. This lithograph was printed by Thomas Way. (See also GLAHA 49060/49061/49321/49659).
