EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Edgar Degas' masterpiece, "Bust of Woman; Buste de Femme". The artist's exceptional talent is evident in this charcoal and grey wash on paper creation, measuring 23x35 cm. With a close-up view, the portrait-style artwork depicts a quarter-length female figure with her head turned away from the viewer. Degas' impressionistic style shines through as he skillfully captures the essence of his subject. The woman's hair is meticulously rendered, adding depth and texture to the piece. Her posture suggests an active stance, with raised arms that convey a sense of stretching or movement. The artist's attention to detail extends to every aspect of this work. From the delicate lines that define facial features to the subtle shading that creates lifelike skin tones, Degas demonstrates his mastery over portraiture. Displayed against a mounted paper background, this early 20th-century artwork represents one of many remarkable pieces created by this renowned French artist. Although we cannot see her face directly due to her turned head and closed eyes, there is an undeniable sense of emotion conveyed through her pose and expression. This photograph offers viewers a glimpse into Degas' artistic genius and invites us to appreciate his ability to capture both physicality and emotion in his subjects.
