About the artist
Whistler's iconic works, balancing reality and abstraction, are hard to miss. His technique involved limiting his palette to reduce tonal contrast, applying light paint in a gentle brushstroke. His artwork mostly centered around everyday delights, capturing scenes and objects aesthetically.
Whistler was inspired by real-world objects and landscapes, which he abstractly represented in his art. He greatly contributed to the transition from realism to abstraction, championing the Aesthetic movement's appreciation for "art for art's sake". His abstract works were marked by colours conveying emotions, while shapes represented real-life objects.
