Nocturne: Palaces

James McNeill Whistler

Cleveland Museum of Art

Dark brown and gray etching of buildings at night. The buildings are on the left and right side of the image, with space in between. The building on the left appears closer, with more details visible. Three archways are at street level, two rows of four windows above. The building on the right has details obscured by shadows. One archway is visible on the first floor, and four windows on the second floor. The artist's signature is in the bottom-left corner of the image. A small white rectangle with illegible writing is at the bottom edge.
