Whistler's Portrait of the Painter's Mother," used as a stamp for 'Mothers' Day in America" in celebration of his centenary, has given rise to a certain amount of controversy.
Artists' organisations pointed out that the peculiar merits of the original picture lay as much in the background as in the central figure.
Founded in 1884 a purely social club, it took its name from the Wellington statue opposite. The fact that it was a late-comer among London clubs enabled it to be the first to open its doors to women when the older clubs re- mained faithful to their exclusion- 1st principles.
Its example in admitting women associate members has since been followed.-
