Summary

"Whistler: Streetscapes, Urban Change explores instances of what Whistler called his "shop game." David Park Curry's practiced eye offers us new means to understand many of Whistler's best-known works and some of his lesser-known materials. Deftly connecting the artworks to popular theater, fiction, and photography of the moment, Curry traces the artist's subtle nods toward his more reform-minded peers as they developed vocabularies to assess and confront urban renewal, gentrification, and the rise of consumer culture in the late nineteenth century"--, Provided by publisher
