‘Arrangement in Yellow and Gray’: Effie Deans — Histoire et analyse

Whistler a ici lié la peinture à la musique et à la littérature, comme l'indique le titre de cette œuvre. Il a utilisé le terme musical 'arrangement' pour attirer l'attention sur la composition des couleurs. Plus tard, il a ajouté le sous-titre littéraire 'Effie Deans' d'après l'héroïne d'un roman de l'écrivain écossais Walter Scott.

Le modèle posant pour Whistler dans cette peinture est Maud Franklin, qui a travaillé avec lui pendant plus de quinze ans.
