France Purchases "Whistler's Mother"
In 1891, with the assistance of Stéphane Mallarmé, the painting "Whistler's Mother" was bought by the French government for 4,000 francs — less than an American collector might have paid, but more prestigious in the artist's eyes.
1892
Move to Paris
In 1892, after the cool reception of his London exhibition, Whistler and his wife moved to Paris (110 Rue du Bac), setting up a studio in Montparnasse. He associated closely with Monet, Rodin, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Mallarmé.
