"The Winged Hat" (s./s./t. 34) is an etching and drypoint created by the renowned American artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Whistler, who was active during the late 19th and early 20th centuries, is celebrated for his contributions to both painting and printmaking, and "The Winged Hat" stands as a testament to his mastery in the latter medium. The work is part of Whistler's extensive oeuvre of etchings, which are highly regarded for their technical precision and artistic innovation.

Created in 1878, "The Winged Hat" features a portrait of a woman adorned with an elaborate hat, which is the focal point of the composition. The hat, with its intricate design and feathered embellishments, exemplifies Whistler's keen eye for detail and his ability to capture the subtleties of texture and form. The subject's serene expression and the delicate rendering of her features reflect Whistler's interest in the aesthetic movement, which emphasized beauty and visual harmony.

Whistler's use of etching and drypoint techniques in "The Winged Hat" demonstrates his skillful manipulation of line and tone. The etching process involves drawing on a metal plate with a needle, while drypoint adds depth and richness through the creation of burrs that hold ink. This combination allows for a range of effects, from fine, delicate lines to more robust, textured areas, contributing to the overall elegance and sophistication of the piece.

"The Winged Hat" is part of Whistler's "Second Venice Set," a series of etchings inspired by his time in Venice. This period was particularly fruitful for Whistler, as he produced numerous works that captured the city's unique atmosphere and architectural beauty. The series, including "The Winged Hat," was well-received and solidified Whistler's reputation as a leading figure in the art world.

Today, "The Winged Hat" is held in various prestigious collections, including the Art Institute of Chicago and the British Museum, where it continues to be admired for its artistic and technical merits. The work remains a significant example of Whistler's contribution to the art of etching and his enduring legacy in the history of art.
