EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases James Abbott McNeill Whistler's renowned painting, "Arrangement in Grey and Black, No. 2: Thomas Carlyle" created in 1872. The subject of the artwork is none other than Thomas Carlyle himself, a Scottish philosopher, satirical writer, essayist, historian, and teacher who was considered one of the most influential social commentators of his time. In this side view portrait captured by The Print Collector, we see Carlyle seated with an air of wisdom and authority. His black hat adds a touch of elegance to his attire while his long grey beard exudes a sense of maturity and experience. Whistler masterfully uses shades of grey to create depth and texture within the composition. The painting currently resides in the Kelvingrove Art Gallery and Museum where it continues to captivate visitors with its profound depiction of Carlyle's intellectual prowess. This piece serves as a testament to Whistler's skill as an artist and his ability to capture not only physical likeness but also the essence and character of his subjects. As we gaze upon this remarkable image, we are transported back in time to witness the presence and influence that Thomas Carlyle held during his lifetime. It is through art like this that we can truly appreciate the lasting impact individuals such as Carlyle have had on our society.
