About the painting
This pastel shows two dancers preparing for their performance. Their gestures indicate that they are adjusting their earrings and coiffures. Degas has limited his palette to two colours: pink and blue-green. As so often in his work, he chose to focus on the dancers’ movements and poses – their bodies rather than the girls as individuals. This pastel is part of a series of pictures based on photographs Degas took in his studio in Montmartre.
