House Where Whistler Died is a 1904 ink by Joseph Pennell, held at National Gallery of Art.
This etching shows a plain brick house with a single light on in a second-floor window. The artist, Pennell, made this after Whistler died there in 1903. He used a drypoint needle to scratch fine lines into the metal plate, then inked it by hand. It’s a quiet piece. Look up the National Gallery of Art, Washington to see more of Pennell’s work.
Joseph Pennell (July 4, 1857 – April 23, 1926) was an American draftsman, etcher, lithographer, and illustrator for books and magazines.
