Vignette-How To Win Friends
His painting labelled to make us sing
Making nemies bcame his thing-
Legal costs were his ruin;
Said to have 'flung paint in the public's face
Fled to Venice ,farthing-less & in disgrace
Wish I could paint like this one of James and cause such a reaction
James McNeil Whistler 1834-1803 American born,London resident
'Nocturne in Black & White
