[Answer] By what name is the painting "Arrangement in Grey and Black No. 1" better known?

Step 1 : Introduction to the question "By what name is the painting "Arrangement in Grey and Black No. 1" better known?"



...The first public exhibition of "Arrangement in Grey and Black No. 1" at the Royal Academy in London in 1872 created a scandal. It wasn't the painting's subject or style that was objectionable; it was the title. The painting is a portrait of a 67-year-old American mother. Her son was the artist with whom she lived. The Victorian-era audience complained that the artist, James McNeill Whistler, would relegate his own mother to the status of an "arrangement." The painting, commonly known as "Whistler's Mother," would become the artist Whistler's most famous work. Source: WorldsBestPaintings.net
