작품 소개

As part of a sketchbook that served a purely private function, some of the pages combine an interesting variety of complex sketches and simple doodles. Edgar Degas never developed the geometric figures on this page into anything of significance.

Edgar Degas의 생애 속 이 작품

생애 전체 보기
  1. 1870s

    From “de Gas” back to plain “Degas”

    The archives disproved the legend of an ancient noble line: the artist's paternal ancestors were bakers, and the name “de Gas” was invented by his father, who commissioned a false genealogy. In the 1870s Edgar returned to the plain spelling, Degas.

  2. mid-1870s

    Back to etching, and monotype

    After a ten-year break Degas returned to etching, at first guided by his old friend Ludovic-Napoléon Lepic, and began experimenting with lithography and monotype; he produced some 300 monotypes.

  3. second half of the 1870s

    Pastel becomes his main medium

    Degas increasingly chose pastel, often combining it with monotype, lithography, etching or gouache. To keep the colour from darkening under ordinary fixatives he devised his own method of fixing and applied pastel in layers.

  4. 1877

    Friendship with Mary Cassatt

    Degas invited Mary Cassatt to show in the third Impressionist exhibition, having admired her portrait “Ida” at the Salon of 1874. He introduced her to pastel and engraving, while she helped him sell paintings and promoted his reputation in the United States.

  5. autumn 1879 – April 1880

    The prints journal: Degas abruptly withdraws

    In the autumn and winter of 1879–1880 Degas and Cassatt worked closely together on a prints journal; he owned a small printing press. In April 1880 Degas abruptly withdrew, and without his support the project folded.
