Painting Description
"Fulham (kennedy 182)" is an etching and drypoint work created by the American-born, British-based artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Whistler, renowned for his innovative contributions to the art of etching and his influence on the Aesthetic Movement, produced this piece as part of his celebrated Thames Set, a series of etchings depicting scenes along the River Thames in London. The work is cataloged as Kennedy 182, referring to its listing in Edward G. Kennedy's comprehensive catalogue raisonné of Whistler's etchings.
Created in the late 19th century, "Fulham (kennedy 182)" captures a picturesque view of Fulham, a district in West London, known for its historic charm and riverside vistas. Whistler's etching technique is evident in the intricate detailing and the atmospheric quality of the scene, which reflects his mastery in rendering light and shadow. The composition typically features a blend of architectural elements, natural scenery, and the bustling life along the riverbanks, showcasing Whistler's keen observational skills and his ability to infuse everyday scenes with a sense of beauty and tranquility.
Whistler's work on the Thames Set, including "Fulham (kennedy 182)," was instrumental in establishing his reputation as a leading figure in the etching revival of the 19th century. His approach to etching was influenced by his admiration for the works of Rembrandt and the Old Masters, yet he brought a modern sensibility to his subjects, emphasizing mood and atmosphere over mere topographical accuracy. This particular etching is a testament to Whistler's belief in "art for art's sake," where the aesthetic experience is paramount.
"Fulham (kennedy 182)" remains a significant piece within Whistler's oeuvre, reflecting his innovative spirit and his contribution to the development of etching as a respected art form. The work is held in various public and private collections, continuing to be studied and admired for its technical brilliance and its evocative portrayal of 19th-century London.
