The Lime-burner

James McNeill Whistler

Cleveland Museum of Art

Black and white image of a man standing in an open doorway of a large structure. The man wears a hat, collared shirt, pants, and shoes. He rests one arm on a stack of barrels and holds a bag in the other hand. His face is obscured by the brim of his hat. His body partially conceals a large wheel. Two ladders lean against the interior wall behind him. Interior walls are made of bricks and wood. An outdoor area with a body of water is visible in the background. The artwork is signed in the bottom right corner.
