O dziele
Three ballet dancers stretch in the wings in Edgar Degas's Dancers, a pastel of about 1896 in the Cleveland Museum of Art, Cleveland. They seem unaware of anyone watching. Degas repeatedly chose these private moments away from the stage over public bows, returning to ballet in more than a thousand works across several media. Yellow, pink and orange accumulate in powdery layers on this sheet. Its rough texture is characteristic of his late pastels. He developed methods for superimposing colors at different levels of transparency and opacity, producing the densely worked surface and vibrating color seen here.
Tancerki (fr. Danseuses) – pastelowy obraz francuskiego malarza impresjonistycznego Edgara Degasa z 1896 roku, przedstawiający trzy baletnice w żółtych sukienkach.
Opis muzeum
Degas depicted the ballet in more than 1,000 paintings, prints, pastels, and sculptures. He preferred private, offstage moments to glamorous curtain calls or artfully constructed compositions. Here, three dancers stretch together in the wings, unaware of the viewer’s presence. Powdery layers of yellow, orange, and pink pastel create a rough surface characteristic of Degas’s late work in the medium. He invented special techniques that allowed him to build layer upon layer of color with varying degrees of opacity and transparency. This pastel’s rich surface and intense, vibrating palette is the result of such innovative methods.
