Description: | Unframed s. in plate with butterfly; u.r. CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) This is a copper etching plate. The subjects of building fronts and streetscapes were favourites with Whistler and allowed the artist ample opportunity to experiment with compositional devices, as well as the contrast of light and shadow in windows and open doorways.
