Notes
  1. ↑ James McNeill Whistler (1890) The Gentle Art of Making Enemies "Take the picture of my mother, exhibited at the Royal Academy as an "Arrangement in Grey and Black." Now that is what it is. To me it is interesting as a picture of my mother; but what can or ought the public to care about the identity of the portrait?"
