Never before toured, selected works from the world-famous collection of the artist s estate are offered for exhibition in the United States for the first time. These works, along with some of Whistler s personal effects, were donated to the Hunterian by Rosalind Birnie Philip, youngest sister of Whistler s wife Beatrix. The items provide an intimate portrait of the life and times of this famed American expatriate. The Hunterian Art Gallery has by far the most extensive collection of Whistler s art, ranging from paintings to prints to sketch designs for costumes, interiors and graphic images. Included in this exhibition of 129 works are a dozen paintings, 57 prints, and personal belongings such as silverware, porcelain, manuscripts and books.
