| | James McNeill Whistler - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia |
 | | Whistler's painting The White Girl (1862) caused controversy when exhibited in London and, later, at the Salon des Refusés in Paris. | | | Whistler's belief that art should concentrate on the arrangement of colors led many critics to see his work as a precursor of abstract art. | | | The painting epitomises his theory that art should essentially be concerned with the beautiful arrangement of colors in harmony, not with the accurate portrayal of the natural world, as recommended by the critic John Ruskin. |

| | Whistler's confrontation of this rejection foreshadowed the iconoclastic nature of his art that would continue for the rest of his life. | | | Whistler pioneered the modern style of sparse galleries, involving himself intimately in the presentation of his work. | | | Although a contemporary of the Impressionists, Whistler walked his own path from the Realism of Courbet to an aesthetic approach of "Art for Art's Sake." As one of the first westerners to be influenced by the artistic tradition of Japan, Whistler developed an aesthetic response to living. |

| | Whistler probably intended all three paintings to be in his studio when Leyland and the creditors made an inspection of his house in 1879. | | | “James McNeill Whistler’s position in the history of British art is as paradoxical as his personality: flamboyant dandy and wit, he was also a serious craftsman, tirelessly dedicated to the perfection of his art. | | | He commissioned his portrait from Whistler in 1893, and it was painted in six weeks in his Parisian studio, 1894. |

Leyland. | | | In 1871 Whistler painted a deeply-felt portrait of his mother, restrained in colour and severe in composition. | | | Whistler's collection of letters and pamphlets on art, The Gentle Art of Making Enemies, was published by William Heinemann in 1890. |

| | James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834-1903), American painter and etcher, who assimilated Japanese art styles, made technical innovations, and championed modern art. | | | Toward the end of his life, when he lived in Paris, Whistler came to be regarded as a major artist. | | | In 1877 he exhibited a number of landscapes done in the Japanese manner; these paintings, which he called nocturnes, outraged conservative art opinion, which did not understand his avoidance of narrative detail, his layers of atmospheric color, and his belief in art for art's sake. |

| | Whistler rejected the high-keyed palette of the impressionists, but his continued interest in the two-dimensional nature of Japanese prints led him, in the early 1870s, to a series of paintings close in spirit to the works of Manet. | | | Whistler associated himself with that circle of artists espousing the avant-garde theories of the realists. | | | After Whistler exhibited his painting The White Girl (1862) in the famous Salon des Refusés of 1863 (which coincidentally featured Manet's controversial Le déjeuner sur l'herbe), critics and artists alike began to take notice of his work. |

| | Because of Whistler's lack of coherent style, his belief in aesthetic art, and rejection of traditional story-telling or moral art, and his exploration of any mediums, the public often did not know what to make of Whistler, and so he was never as famous or given as much credit as other artists of this period. | | | Whistler's art is in many respects the opposite of his often-aggressive personality, being discreet and subtle, but the creed that lay behind it was radical. | | | Whistler, known as both a rebel and an aesthete, is one of the most influential artists of the nineteenth century. |

| | American Artist -- James Abbott McNeill Whistler |
| | "Whistler's immense graphic talents influenced American style: he led a number of Americans to a new attitude about art, to a new view of etching and lithography, and to a 'new' medium, the pastel. | | | Economy of means was always important for him, and even his critics recognized that his 'audacity is based on directness and simplicity of color.' American artists had been moving toward the subjective, the expressive, incisive strokes. | | | And watercolor for Whistler was the most evanescent of mediums: his small sketches are literally impressions, with a few strokes of a wet brush conveying the most delicate moods of nature." |
