1862
From the collection of Cleveland Museum of Art
Illustration for "Count Bruckhardt" in "Once a Week" is a 1862 by James McNeill Whistler, a Impressionism work, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This sketch shows a woman in a long dress and hood, kneeling by a window. Outside, faint shapes suggest a city or landscape. The lines are loose and dark, with no clear colors—just shadows and light. The artist used simple shapes to show her quiet moment. The drawing looks like it was made quickly, with lots of cross-hatching for texture. Check out James McNeill Whistler for more works like this.
James Abbott McNeill Whistler was an American painter in oils and watercolor, and printmaker, active during the American Gilded Age and based primarily in the United Kingdom.
