Ballet dancers - Edgar Degas
The scene in motion: the elegance of Edgar Degas's Danseuses de ballet
In this art print of the Danseuses de ballet, Degas captures the fleeting moment of a rehearsal, mixing pointed poses and suspended gestures. The palette favors pastel and ochre tones, highlighted by touches of light that sculpt the tutus and tense muscles. The close framing and slight perspective create an atmosphere both intimate and choreographed, where the viewer perceives discipline and grace. The drawing and pastel technique shines through in the fineness of the lines and the modulation of contours, offering a contained but palpable emotion.
Edgar Degas, master of modern observation

Influenced by Japanese engraving and photographic innovations, Degas favors bold framing and the study of human gesture. His major works, including the series of dancers, have deeply marked the representation of the figure in motion, affirming a rigorous observational approach and a sensitivity to textures and light.
