Description
Edgar Degas (French, 1834–1917)
Pastel on paper depicting a reclining nude woman resting across a bed in an intimate interior setting. The figure is rendered with expressive strokes of brown, rose, blue, orange, and yellow, while the surrounding furnishings are loosely defined with vigorous color and line, creating a spontaneous and private atmosphere associated with Degas’s studies of women in domestic interiors.
Signed “Degas” lower left.
Edgar Degas was a French artist closely associated with Impressionism and celebrated for his depictions of dancers, women at their toilette, and scenes of modern Parisian life. His pastel works are especially admired for their bold color, expressive draftsmanship, unconventional viewpoints, and intimate observation of the human figure.
