Painting Description
Arrangement in Black and Brown: The Fur Jacket, also known as Arrangement in Brown and Black: Portrait of Miss Rosa Corder, is an oil painting by the American artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Created in 1876, this artwork is part of Whistler's famous "Arrangement in Color" series, which focuses on the aesthetic arrangement of colors and forms over the traditional narrative and allegorical content in portraiture. The painting depicts Rosa Corder, an artist and mistress to Charles Augustus Howell, who was a close associate of Whistler. The portrait is characterized by its subdued palette primarily consisting of varying shades of brown and black, which exemplifies Whistler's tonalist aesthetic and his belief in "art for art's sake."
The composition of The Fur Jacket is notable for its elegant simplicity and the subtle modeling of forms, which create a harmonious and balanced effect. Whistler's use of soft, diffused lighting enhances the introspective and somewhat enigmatic quality of the sitter's expression. The painting is a significant example of Whistler's mature portraiture style, where he achieves a sophisticated interplay of colors and textures, particularly evident in the rendering of the fur jacket worn by Corder.
Arrangement in Black and Brown: The Fur Jacket is held in the Frick Collection in New York City, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance. The work not only reflects Whistler's skills as a portraitist but also his contributions to the Aesthetic Movement, which championed beauty and artistic expression over literal representation and moralistic themes.
