    Shelley’s Art Musings – There is more to Whistler than his Mother…

    January 14, 2019 / 2 Comments

    I am sure that the first thing anyone thinks of when they hear the name James Abbott McNeill Whistler is the dower painting of his Mother. The muted pallet and stern setting of the piece along with the initial reaction to its original name made this a sure-fire masterpiece, but ask most people to name another piece by Whistler and they probably can’t.
