EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print titled "Fumette, c. 1857" showcases an etching and drypoint masterpiece by the renowned artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler. Measuring 16.5x11.1 cm, this artwork is housed in the prestigious Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA. Fumette, a nickname given to Heloise, a talented seamstress and spirited Bohemian working girl from the Latin Quarter, was Whistler's beloved mistress for two years. Printed by Auguste DelAtre with meticulous precision, this piece beautifully captures Fumette's essence. In the image, we see Fumette seated on her haunches with a cigarette delicately held between her fingers. The smoke gracefully swirls around her as she exudes an air of confidence and allure. Her demure yet alluring gaze draws us into her world - one filled with mystery and intrigue. Whistler masterfully portrays Fumette as both strong-willed and vulnerable through his intricate engravings that bring out every detail of her expression and posture. This print serves as a testament to their passionate relationship during that era. With its historical significance and artistic brilliance, "Fumette" continues to captivate viewers today. It stands as a reminder of the complex lives led by women like Fumette - demi-mondaines who defied societal norms while pursuing their dreams in 19th-century Parisian society.
