A broad and comprehensive exploration of the work of the widely admired and beloved American artist.

Painter, etcher, draughtsman, lithographer, and watercolorist, Whistler was a leading proponent of the “art for art’s sake” movement and had immense influence on the art and aesthetics of his age.  

Known for incisive and sensitive portraits, dreamy views of Venetian palaces, and the subtle colors of northern skies and ever-changing seascapes, Whistler is a master of balancing tonal harmony and composition. His voluminous body of work and technical proficiency, along with his arguments with critics, disrupted the conventions of Victorian society in pursuit of truth, beauty, and progress. Hardcover, 224 pages
