The image illustrates the upper three-quarters of a seated person, facing forward. The person's facial features are softly depicted, with gentle lines indicating eyes and a mouth, while their hair is short and slightly tousled. They wear a dress with visible sleeves, and their hands are placed in their lap. No jewelry or accessories are shown. The background is simplistic, featuring sketchy diagonal lines and shading.

Little Dorothy

Whistler, James McNeill

This is a carved copper plate showing a busy street scene viewed from above. The street is lined with tall buildings, and people and horse-drawn carriages are visible on the street below. The street narrows as it recedes into the distance, with a line of buildings where it ends. The sky above the scene is clear, except for faint grid lines that run across the whole scene. The edges of the plate are tinged in purple, teal, and white.

St. James's Street

Whistler, James McNeill

The image shows a sketch of a street view with a building at the center. Figures are depicted near an entrance, with one figure crouching and a horse hitched to a cart on the right. The background is minimalistic, with light brush strokes creating an impressionistic feel. The color palette is monochromatic in shades of black and gray.

Gaiety Stage Door

Whistler, James McNeill

The image depicts a low angle view across a calm body of water with boats and buildings. The horizon line is high, marked by trees and structures. The boats dominate the right side, while buildings line the left. The technique uses fine brushstrokes, giving an ethereal quality. The color palette is monochromatic with tones of brown and gray, creating a serene atmosphere. The contrast between dark sails and lighter elements adds visual impact.

Hurlingham

Whistler, James McNeill

The image shows a sketch of several people situated around a table indoors. Two individuals are visible sitting at the table, with one person's back slightly turned. Both individuals have simple hair styles, and their facial features are minimally detailed. The clothing is suggested with basic lines, and one person appears to be wearing a hat. There is no clear depiction of jewelry or objects being held. The background is roughly sketched with shading hinting at a window or architectural detail. The focus is on the figures, with surrounding lines giving context.

Late Picquet

Whistler, James McNeill

The image depicts a person's upper body in a reclined position. The individual's face is in a side profile with closed eyes and a relaxed expression. The hair is loosely drawn to show texture and volume. The clothing is sketchily indicated with lines resembling textured fabric. The artwork has minimal details and a plain background of the same color as the paper, with no other objects present.
