Whistler spoke out against the creation of art as a commodity and as a soulless imitation of nature. He recognized the economic realities of his day and, even though his misty nocturnal paintings seemed insubstantial, unfinished, and subversive to many, he made a success of his own notoriety." ; 13.1 X 10.2 X 1.7 inches; 378 pages.
