( Kennedy no.23 ) Original Etching. Signed on the plate Whistler. One of the French Set. "A fine plate executed during the same period is The Rag Gatherers_ a squalid interior with two figures at the back , very suggestive and powerful in effect." T .R. Way. "The most interesting thing about this plate to me is the fact that Whistler thought nothing of the time and trouble involved in changing his plates. Here an entirely new composition was evolved, a whole group of figures added , and there is not the slightest evidence of the great labor in changing it." Joseph Pennel
