About the authors

James McNeill Whistler

1834–1903

Best known for the iconic portrait often called Whistler’s Mother, this American-born artist built a singular style out of subtle color, mood, and atmosphere. His paintings, prints, and sharp public feuds helped make him one of the most memorable figures in nineteenth-century art.

Oscar Wilde

1854–1900

Best known for sparkling wit, elegant plays, and the haunting novel The Picture of Dorian Gray, this Irish writer turned style, satire, and social criticism into unforgettable art. His life was as dramatic as his work, ending in exile after a trial that shocked Victorian society.
