The Duet

James McNeill Whistler

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Duet by James McNeill Whistler: A black and white sketch on beige paper depicting two women sitting side by side. The woman on the left is wearing a dark dress and has dark hair. She is sitting in a chair with her hands in her lap. The woman on the right is wearing a hat and sitting on a bench or chair. There is a table in front of them with indistinguishable objects on it. The background is shaded with various lines and marks, suggesting a room with a wall and window. The overall style is impressionistic with loose brushstrokes.
