拍品专文

The female figure resting in a languid pose is Joanna Hiffernan, Whistler's mistress and model during the early 1860s. At this time, Whistler was a neighbour of Dante Gabriel Rosetti, the foremost exponent of the Pre-Raphaelite movement. Whistler temporarily responded to his style, as can be seen in Weary, the most Pre-Raphaelite of all his etchings.
