Description: | Unframed CRE WHISTLER, James McNeill; (American; 1834-1903) This is an etching plate. Whistler probably made this etching during one of his last visits to Speke Hall, the country home of his patron, Liverpool shipping magnate, F. R. Leyland, in early 1875. In this composition, Whistler?s dramatic use of shadows seems almost to swallow up the figures. (See also GLAHA 46779).
