Description
 
Medium: lithograph (after the pastel). The lithography was executed by Whistler's friend and fellow artist Thomas Way, and published in London by The Studio in 1905 for a rare deluxe portfolio. Printed on smooth wove paper, the lithograph measures 10 1/8 x 6 1/4 inches (256 x 160 mm). The lithograph is presented as originally published: mounted along the top edge onto a brown backing sheet, which is itself mounted onto a stiff antique paperboard. Signed in the plate (not by hand).
