EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Street Saverne in 1858, as etched by the renowned artist James McNeill Whistler. The open bite technique used in this etching creates a unique texture reminiscent of sandpaper ground, adding depth and character to the image. This particular print is from the third state of Whistler's work, showcasing his mastery in capturing intricate details. The scene depicts an enchanting corner of Glasgow, with its charming old buildings illuminated by a gas lantern hanging on the right side. Whistler's expert use of sharp recession heightens the irregular forms and casts deep shadows that add drama to this nocturnal composition. Visiting this Alsatian town during summer inspired Whistler to produce one of his first etchings, which has become known as a "Nocturne". The blue chine color palette chosen for this piece adds a touch of serenity and elegance to the overall ambiance. Printed on off-white wove paper with chine collé technique, this artwork measures approximately 8 3/16 x 6 1/4 inches (208 x 159 cm). It showcases Whistler's exceptional talent in capturing architectural beauty while infusing it with his own artistic interpretation. This remarkable print from Liszt Collection allows viewers to appreciate Whistler's skillful craftsmanship and experience the allure of Street Saverne through his eyes.
