The Pink Dancers, Before the Ballet - Edgar Degas
In search of essentiality, Edgard Degas followed the dancers of the Paris Opera during their regular training, backstage and on stage. The artist produced a large number of works dedicated to them, all as varied in their themes as in the techniques employed. In this work, the gestures that he suggests through pure lines and dazzling colors have a surprisingly expressive value. Enjoying ballet, Degas painted several pictures of dancers, such as The blue dancers and Dancers in pink.
