JAMES A. M. WHISTLER Hurlingham.
Etching and drypoint on cream laid paper, 1879. 135x199 mm; 5 1/4x7 3/4 inches, full margins. Third state (of 3). A superb, dark impression, with strong contrasts and all the fine details printing clearly.
This is a view of the Thames above London. Whistler chose to focus on the dark mass of the sail and its reflection on the water, motifs that would reappear in his Venice etchings a year or so later. Kennedy 181.
