작품 소개
Edgar Degas spent many evenings at the homes of friends, discussing ideas with fellow artists, philosophers, and authors. Over two pages of his sketchbook, he drew a *soirée* in the home of Madame Charles Hayem, who reclines on the sofa, coquettishly holding a fan to her face. The writer Jules Barbey d'Aurevilly stands before a fireplace in the center; seated on a stool with his back to the viewer is the philosopher Adolphe Francke. To the right of Barbey, Degas began to sketch a fourth figure with long, straight hair and perhaps a beard. On the far left, he experimented with another drawing of Barbey facing to the right in a long embroidered coat, holding a sword. Degas extensively erased and reworked the sketch as he experimented with different coat lengths and angles for the sword.

Edgar Degas의 생애 속 이 작품
생애 전체 보기1870s
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
