The Duet Made 1894 United States. Similar to many other artists of the period, Whistler relied on family members to serve as models. Relatives sometimes posed for formal works but were often pictured in everyday settings. Many of the resulting prints and drawings are charmingly casual, as exemplified by these domestic images of Whistlerís wife and two of her sisters. In one, Beatrice Whistler and her younger sister Ethel Whibley play a four-hand piano piece in the comfortable, lamp-lit salon of the Whistlersí home in Paris. The other lithograph, which shows Beatriceís youngest sister, Rosalind Birnie Philip, is more poignant. Whistler drew her as she sat by Beatriceís sickbed in a London hotel room, several months before Beatriceís death.. Transfer lithograph in black on cream laid paper . James McNeill Whistler
