Produktbeschreibung
An indispensable introduction to the life and work of James McNeill Whistler, whose atmospheric paintings and aesthetic theories cemented his international reputation as one of the most influential artists of the modern age.  James McNeill Whistler (1834-1903) was a strong proponent of the credo 'art for art's sake'. He believed that art was an arrangement of line, form, and colour first, over any claims to its social or political imperatives. His paintings exemplify his belief: picturesque compositions in harmonious tones that flaunt strong silhouettes, elegant contours, and capture the impressions of a place.  This book is a concise introduction to the life and work of Whistler. It brings together a selection of arresting but enigmatic paintings, drawings and sketches from across his career to highlight his attention to composition and display that became central to his artistic identity. Touching on his wide travels and well-publicised disputes with friends and critics alike, it reveals an inspirational artist whose signature vision and steadfast principles defied the artistic traditions and complacency of his time.
