Anna McNeill Whistler

While Whistler's Mother has continued to captivate the imagination of viewers through the centuries, the name and story of Whistler’s real mother has been wrongfully overlooked. Who was Whistler’s mother? And how would she have liked to be remembered?  Listen to ArtMuse’s episode on Anna McNeill Whistler, not only the mother of James McNeill Whistler, but also his artistic manager and agent. One may judge by her portrait that Anna was a stern woman who lived a simple life, but doing so would be a great injustice, for Anna was a far from ordinary woman, who lived a far from simple life. She was Whistler’s mother, but she was also so much more. ArtMuse is produced by Kula Production Company.
