Weary James McNeill Whistler American 1863 Whistler's confidence as an etcher is seen in this portrait of Jo Hiffernan, his model, muse and companion in the 1860s. The artist's brother-in-law Seymour Haden taught him to etch and showed in works by Rembrandt. From the latter, Whistler learned to approach printmaking as an experimental process in which portions of an image could be left suggestively undeveloped. Here, Whistler used drypoint, scratching lines into the copper to throw up a burr that caught the ink and printed in a soft, evocative manner. A shadowy female head visible at lower right demonstrates that the artist changed his mind as he worked, turned the plate around, and began the design afresh. Jo's pose and sensuously unbound hair echo languid images of women beautiful women created by the Pre-Raphaelite painter Dante Gabriel Rossetti who lived near Whistler in Chelsea.

Study for the Painting "Sybil" Lord Frederick Leighton (British, 1830-1896). Study for the Painting "Sybil.". Charcoal and chalk on wove paper, Sheet: 14 9/16 x 10 7/8 in. (37 x 27.6 cm). Frederic Leightons academic training taught him to prepare numerous figure and drapery studies for his paintings. This drawing of a classically robed woman is a study for a large oil painting, Sybil, which he exhibited in 1889. Her pose is reminiscent of Albrecht Dürers figure in Melencolia, while her sculptural presence reflects Leightons debt to the monumental female figures of Michelangelo. By the 1880s, Leightons highly finished style was falling out of fashion in favor of the looser, more spontaneous approach of Impressionism. In this climate, viewers appreciated his energetic charcoal drawings, such as this one, which contemporary magazines regularly reproduced. European Art
