Lisbon's Calouste Gulbenkian Museum holds 2 works by Edgar Degas (1834–1917) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Degas was primarily a draughtsman, and the extraordinary line beneath his dancers and racehorses becomes visible only in the original work. His pastels are particularly striking in person, with a chalky luminosity that no printed reproduction can replicate.

Planning your visit to Lisbon
Lisbon's museums are hilly and require trams or taxis to move between efficiently. The Museu Nacional de Arte Antiga and the Calouste Gulbenkian Museum are both world-class but widely separated — plan one per day. Entry to national museums is free on Sunday mornings.
