James Abbott McNeill Whistler was a prominent figure in the Aesthetic Movement focusing on "Art for art's sake." One of Whistler's most renowned works is "Arrangement in Grey and Black No. 1," widely known as "Whistler's Mother," painted in 1871. This oil on canvas depicts his mother, Anna McNeill Whistler, seated in profile. Despite Whistler's insistence that the painting be appreciated for its formal qualities, its subtle harmonies of grey and black and balanced composition, it has garnered widespread sentimental appeal as a profound depiction of maternal dignity and old age. The painting, initially met with mixed reviews in London, achieved masterpiece status in Paris and was acquired by the French state. Its enduring presence in popular culture, including its use as a symbol of American motherhood during the Great Depression, showcases its unique blend of artistic innovation and emotional resonance, continuing to captivate audiences over a century and a half after its creation.
