# Talk:The Lady in White (Bracquemond)

I'm still trying to piece together the breadcrumbs linking Whistler's influence to this painting. Nielsen brings it up in her lecture about her 2024 exhibition, and I suspect its mentioned in her book as well, but I would like to see other examples of it in the literature.  It's interesting to note that Felix, Marie's husband spoke or wrote about how much he liked Whistler's woman in white in the 1860s, and there are sources indicating that Felix and Whistler were interacting on a social level.  It's not clear how this influence came to The Lady in White directly, but it's obvious that Marie and many other artists were heavily indebted to Whistler (and others?) for this theme.
