"Annie" is a portrait painting created by the American-born, British-based artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Whistler, known for his distinctive style and significant contributions to the Aesthetic Movement, painted this work in the mid-19th century. The painting features a young girl named Annie Haden, who was the daughter of Whistler's half-sister, Deborah Delano Haden, and her husband, the surgeon and etcher Francis Seymour Haden.

The portrait is notable for its intimate and tender depiction of the young girl, capturing her innocence and the subtleties of her expression. Whistler's use of a limited color palette and delicate brushwork exemplifies his mastery in creating mood and atmosphere, hallmarks of his broader oeuvre. The background is rendered in soft, muted tones, which serve to highlight the subject's face and the intricate details of her attire.

"Annie" is often praised for its compositional simplicity and the emotional depth conveyed through the subject's gaze and posture. Whistler's approach to portraiture was influenced by his belief in "art for art's sake," a principle that emphasized the importance of beauty and aesthetic experience over moral or narrative content. This philosophy is evident in the way he focuses on the visual harmony and balance within the painting.

The portrait of Annie Haden is part of a larger body of work that includes other family members and close acquaintances, reflecting Whistler's personal connections and the significance of his familial relationships in his artistic practice. Today, "Annie" is recognized as an exemplary piece within Whistler's portraiture, showcasing his ability to blend realism with an almost ethereal quality, capturing the essence of his subjects with both precision and sensitivity.
