About this book

Best known for the painting made depicting his mother, James McNeill Whistler was an American painter who worked mostly in the United Kingdom, his works often sentimental in nature.

He created a form of colour etching, as well as publishing 'War Impressions', the first book to reproduce coloured art works faithfully, making him a pioneer of illustrated art books. Menpes had been a pupil of Whistler, having met him in Brittany in 1880. Illustrated with a frontispiece portrait of Whistler, as well as one hundred and thirty-four plates in colour and black and white. – Print ed.
