James MacNeill Whistler is a 1897 by Thomas Robert Way, held at Cleveland Museum of Art.
This painting is a portrait of a man with curly hair and a mustache, wearing a dark jacket over a white shirt. The background is dark, which makes the subject stand out. The man's facial expression is serious, and his eyes seem to be looking directly at the viewer. The artist has used a range of shades to create depth and dimension in the painting. If you're interested in learning more about the artist who created this portrait, you might want to look up Thomas Robert Way (British, 1861–1913).
