It is exceptionally small for a painting on canvas by Whistler. It is painted with fairly thick creamy paint, the brushstrokes, and some conspicuous brush and palette knife strokes, which are much more obvious than was usual in Whistler's work. The butterfly, painted more thinly, may have been a later addition.
