Comments:
The statue, made by Nicholas Dimbleby, commemorates the American-born painter James Abbott McNeill Whistler (1834-1903).
Whistler, best known for the painting "Arrangement in Grey and Black No. 1" (Whistler’s mother), moved to Paris from the United States in 1855, and from 1859 until the day of his death lived in London.
The statue is at the foot of Battersea Bridge, a bridge that Whistler painted, and was placed in 2005
