You see a portrait of a woman in this etching. She's sitting with her hands together. The details in her face and clothes are interesting because they show the artist's skill with simple lines. The woman's expression is quiet and calm. This etching is special because it shows how Whistler used simple lines to create a detailed portrait. You can learn more about this style by looking into the technique: etching, drypoint.
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.
