EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print of "Grande Arabesque, Third Time, 1888-90 (bronze)" by Edgar Degas transports us to the world of French impressionism and the artist's private exploration of sculpture. Standing at a height of 45 cm, this bronze masterpiece is housed in the Narodni Galerie in Prague, Czech Republic. Degas' curiosity about capturing the human or animal body in dramatic motion is beautifully showcased in this sculpture. The graceful movement and fluidity depicted here are characteristic of his unique style. It is fascinating to note that these sculptures remained hidden from public view during his lifetime and were cast in bronze only after his death. In this particular artwork, we witness a female dancer frozen mid-motion as she executes an arabesque pose. The delicate balance between strength and elegance is palpable as her body effortlessly defies gravity. Through Degas' meticulous attention to detail, every muscle seems alive with energy. The nude figure adds another layer of vulnerability and authenticity to the piece. Stripped down to its purest form, it allows us to appreciate not just the physical beauty but also the emotional depth conveyed through dance. This print serves as a testament to Degas' mastery as both a painter and sculptor within the realm of impressionism. It invites us into a world where movement becomes art and captures our imagination with its timeless allure.
