Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book explores the vast and fascinating world of lithographs by renowned artist James McNeill Whistler, shedding light on his creative process, techniques, and thematic preoccupations. As a pioneer in lithography in the late 19th century, Whistler pushed the boundaries of the medium, constantly experimenting with different materials and approaches. The book delves into the aesthetic qualities that define Whistler's lithographs, examining the artist's emphasis on atmosphere and suggestion rather than meticulous details. It also investigates the evolution of Whistler's subjects, from the early river scenes along the Thames to his later depictions of figures and urban scenes. Beyond the technical aspects, the book unravels the significance of Whistler's lithographs within the broader art world of his time. It examines the artist's unique vision and how his exploration of this medium influenced the development of printmaking in the years that followed. With its rich illustrations and in-depth analysis, this book provides an invaluable perspective on Whistler's contributions to the art of lithography and its lasting impact on artistic expression. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…

Cloth, gilt cover-title and device, large 4to, 44 cm, [3], 38, [2] pp,7 full-page engravings, 13 woodcuts. . Uncommon. Includes a Memoir of the artist and illustrator Cecil Gordon Lawson (1849-1882) by Sir Edmund Gosse and, in an appendix, a Catalogue of pictures exhibited by Cecil Lawson at the Royal Academy and at the Grosvenor Gallery. The illustrations comprise 3 etchings (2 by Herkomer, 1 by Whistler), 1 steel engraving by Herkomer, 3 facsimile reproductions of Lawson's works and 13 woodcuts of sketches drawn on wood by Lawson. The woodcuts and Whistler etching are printed on india paper and mounted. The other etchings are printed directly onto the page. From a contemporary review by Cosmo Monkhouse: ". the volume is a rare instance of how a young genius can be appreciated and his memory cherished by his peers both in his own art and the sister art of literature. Although the wood-cuts are unequal, some are very good, and others are the only records available of the arduous labour which Lawson for a few years undertook for the illustration of current literature. Of Mr. Whistler's etching the same may be said as of all his work, that it is "as good as far as it goes." It is characteristic that he should have chosen an unfinished picture for interpretation, and that this interpretation should be as "terse" as possible. His little slight etching is nevertheless a taste, and a piquant taste, of "his quality." To those who wish to see the very hand of Lawson himself, the most satisfactory plate in the volume is a facsimile of the beautiful crayon drawing of "The Maid was in the Garden. An ex-library copy with a few small blindstamps on lower margins and some accession marks, Covers darkened and finger-marked and slightly rubbed, endpapers agetoned, contents Good with a few minor marks.…

The subject was inspired by an unfinished painting by the artist Cecil Lawson (1851-1882), whose widow Constance Lawson was the elder sister of Whistler's wife-to-be, Beatrice. According to MacDonald, this was the only illustration etching Whistler made after the three he produced for the Junior Etching Club in 1861. Kennedy 241; Glasgow 247.
