Description: | Unframed s. in plate with butterfly; u.c. CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) This is a copper etching plate. Throughout his career, Whistler was fond of exploring the subject of doorways and the effects of their shadowed interiors contrasted with the bright illumination of a building?s exterior. In this image, a figure is retreating into the darkness of the passageway. (See also GLAHA 46989/46990).
