Bemerkung:

Ein gutes und sauberes Exemplar. - During his career as an artist abroad in Europe, Whistler drew inspiration from the rich visual tradition of the seventeenth-century; he participated in emerging movements such as French Realism; he was quick to draw inspiration from Japanese art and as he traversed ensuing developments in the nineteenth-century he was able to evolve a singular and influential aesthetic. Whistler's style and the subject matter he chose were inspirational for many significant artists of the day, including Claude Monet and Camille Pissarro. Of particular consequence for the French artists was the acceptance of, and the exploration of the cityscape as an appropriate subject for art - and in the case of Monet, for his own observations of the River Thames and Venice.
