The Palace; white and pink

James McNeill Whistler, 1879/1880

This artwork depicts a palace along a canal, viewed from a straight-on perspective. The building features arched windows and a mix of white and pink hues, with some areas accented in soft yellows and greens. The composition includes loosely drawn lines, giving a sketch-like quality to the scene. Water at the base reflects the colors of the structure, with hints of pink, green, and orange rippling across the surface. The overall color palette is muted, emphasizing pastel tones. Shadows and figures are shown with minimal detail.
