占士·惠斯勒James McNeill Whistler,1834年7月11日—1903年7月17日),著名印象派畫家父親美國工程師,全家曾居於聖彼得堡。惠斯勒曾入讀西點軍校,之後自選畫家為職業。

惠斯勒出生於馬薩諸塞州,21歲時懷着成為藝術家的雄心前往巴黎。他在倫敦建立起事業,從此未曾返回祖國。多年後,他成為19世紀美術史上最前衛的畫家之一。作為一名旅居者,惠斯勒沒有受到為道德而藝術的美國趨勢的影響。相反,他甚至追求唯美主義,即「為藝術而藝術」(art for art's sake),這種理論認為美感應當是藝術追求的唯一目標。

在1870年代事業達到高峰之際,惠斯勒關注藝術作品的展現。他為自己的畫設計畫框,有時甚至自己安排展覽。在為英國船王、他的主要贊助人弗雷德里克·雷蘭(Frederick Richards Leyland)的倫敦住宅設計餐廳裝飾時,他最終實現了塑造無所不包的整體美感的願望。那間現在被稱為孔雀廳餐廳提高了惠斯勒作為唯美主義畫家的聲譽,顯示出他對美感的追求遠遠超越了畫框。

惠斯勒的畫作不太重視輪廓素描,而注重彩色和音樂的效果,尤其喜歡在畫作命名上加上音樂的術語,例如《母親的畫像》又名《灰色與黑色的交響》。
