Description
Edgar studied the works of the great masters of painting in the Louvre. During his life he visited several times Italy where he had relatives in his father's line and had the opportunity to get acquainted with the masterpieces of the Italian Renaissance masters. Of particular interest in him is the cloth of Bellini and Giotto. Despite his desire to know the classics, Degga does not seek to follow the classic pattern. His figures are a little angulated, their movements sharp and shapes far from perfect.
In 1860 he opened a studio in Paris. He portrays portraits as well as many historical stories, which were particularly popular topics among the clients of the artists at that time. The famous self-portrait with a cylinder and gloves also refers to this period. He quickly established himself in the art world of Paris, not experiencing the financial difficulties of his contemporaries.
Degga chose to draw ballet dancers because at that time they were not as respected as in the past. He preferred the training sessions - the blood, the sweat and the tears that came before the show.
Typical for Degas, in "Swaying Dancer" ("The Green Dancer"), the ballerinas are in somewhat atypical poses, even those in the background. This dynamics gives her depth. Degga manages to capture the organized chaos in the back scene by cutting off the front story line and composing outside the center. The painting was painted in 1879.
Reproduction is a high-quality eco-ink print on an Italian canvas, caged on a solid back to the size of 30x40 cm, and over that size the canvas is stretched on a subframe. The picture is arranged in a luxury frame.
