This graceful fish, Edgar, part of the Artsy Fish collection and is painted in the impressionistic style of Edgar Degas.
Degas created over 1,500 artworks and more than half of them were of ballerinas. He rarely focused on the “star” of the show, but rather of the out of view activity, behind the curtain stretching, waiting, or adjusting. The black ribbons around the dancers necks are sometimes interpreted as the contrast between the refined grace of the ballet on stage and the harsh, often exploited life of the dancer off stage.
6×6 oil and cold wax painting on canvas with copper leaf edges.
