Intriguingly captured again in 1858/1859 by Whistler, Seymour stood beneath another enchanting tree, exuding an air of mystery and allure. The depth and complexity of his character were beautifully portrayed through these masterpieces. Not limited to being merely a subject for Whistler's artistry, Seymour also took center stage as he sat gracefully for the talented artist himself.

Seymour's influence extended beyond just paintings; he even graced the title page of "Douze Eaux Fortes d'apres Nature" in 1858.
