Whistler : notes and footnotes and other memoranda
A 1907 New York art-criticism volume by A. E. Gallatin, published by The Collector and Art Critic, collecting notes and memoranda on the painter James McNeill Whistler. The three plates reproduce a snowy winter landscape with a row of tall poplars, a sheet of expressive grotesque head studies in chalk, and blue-and-white Oriental ceramics numbered in the catalogue. A designer might take the loose tonal handling of the snow scene, the quick caricatural gestures of the heads, and the dense blue patterning of the porcelain.
