JAMES A. M. WHISTLER
The Shoemaker.

Lithograph on Chine volant, 1896. 158x221 mm; 6 1/4x8 3/4 inches, full margins. A superb, dark, well-inked and early impression of this very scarce lithograph, with the horizontal creases from the papier végétal transfer paper showing clearly on the hem of the woman's skirt at the lower left and with all the subtle tonal variations distinct. Way 151; Levy 129; Spink 169.
