About the artist

Edgar Degas

French · Impressionism · 1834–1917

Degas is best known for his paintings and pastels of ballet dancers, racehorses, and café scenes — all set in the modern Paris he observed with an unflinching eye. More draughtsman than colourist, he was deeply influenced by Japanese prints and photography, and worked almost entirely in Paris throughout his long career.
