About the piece
Painted in 1895, this evocative portrait by James McNeill Whistler depicts Carmen Rossi, a frequent model for the artist. The work exemplifies Whistler’s Tonalist style, where color harmony and atmosphere take precedence over sharp detail, creating a sophisticated and timeless presence for any interior.
