In this etching titled "Clothes Exchange, No. 1" renowned American artist James McNeill Whistler takes us on a journey to the bustling streets of 19th century America.

Whistler skillfully captures a scene at a clothes exchange, where people from all walks of life gather to trade and barter their garments. The intricate details in the etching bring each character to life - from the vendors passionately haggling over prices to the customers meticulously examining every thread.
