The Storm

James McNeill Whistler

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Storm by James McNeill Whistler depicts a landscape with a person bent over in the lower left corner. The person has dark hair and wears a light-colored shirt with suspenders. They appear to be leaning on their right leg. In the background, there are dark clouds and what appears to be a field or body of water. The sky has many diagonal lines suggesting wind. The image also shows a few trees on the horizon and some buildings on the right side. The entire scene is rendered in shades of gray. The artwork is signed in the bottom right corner.
