Street Scene

James McNeill Whistler

Cleveland Museum of Art

Street scene with people standing and sitting outside a building. The scene appears to be set in a European-style city, likely from the late 19th century. There are a total of around 10 people visible. A woman wearing a long dress and shawl is standing in the center of the image. A young girl stands to her right. In the background, a large stone building with columns and a flat roof is visible. The drawing is rendered in pencil on tan-colored paper. The image is a monochromatic sketch with no vibrant colors. James McNeill Whistler created this piece.
