"Turkeys (k. 199)" is an etching and drypoint artwork created by the renowned American artist James Abbott McNeill Whistler in 1879. Whistler, who is best known for his innovative contributions to the art of etching and his influence on the Aesthetic Movement, produced this piece during a period of prolific output in his career. The work is part of Whistler's "Venice, Second Set" series, also known as the "Twenty-Six Etchings," which he created during his 14-month stay in Venice from 1879 to 1880.

The etching depicts a group of turkeys in a Venetian courtyard, capturing the intricate details and textures of their feathers with Whistler's characteristic precision and delicate line work. The composition is notable for its use of light and shadow, which Whistler masterfully employs to create depth and a sense of atmosphere. The setting, a typical Venetian scene, reflects Whistler's fascination with the city's unique architecture and urban landscapes, which he explored extensively during his time there.

"Turkeys (k. 199)" exemplifies Whistler's skill in combining etching and drypoint techniques to achieve a rich tonal quality and a high level of detail. The piece is also a testament to his ability to find beauty in everyday subjects, elevating a simple scene of birds in a courtyard to a work of fine art. Whistler's Venice etchings, including "Turkeys," were highly influential and contributed to the revival of interest in etching as a serious art form in the late 19th century.

Today, "Turkeys (k. 199)" is held in various public and private collections, admired for its technical excellence and its place within Whistler's broader body of work. The etching continues to be studied and appreciated by art historians and enthusiasts alike, who recognize it as a significant example of Whistler's contribution to the art of etching and his enduring legacy in the world of fine art.
