  Whistler embarked on a new project in the 1880s, working on a small scale in oil, pastel and watercolour, representing new London subjects and painting portraits of new urban types. This book studies Whistler and his Impressionist followers and offers an analysis of Whistler's art as well as fresh insights into his modernist project.
