Edmondo and Therese Morbilli, c. 1865: A Glimpse into the Artist's Inner Circle". This print captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the intimate relationship between Edmondo and Therese Morbilli, as immortalized by the talented artist Edgar Degas. Painted around 1865, this oil on canvas masterpiece offers a glimpse into the personal lives of both Degas and his subjects. The composition depicts a cozy drawing room setting where Edmondo and Therese are seated together on an elegant chaise longue. Dressed impeccably for an evening affair, their attire exudes sophistication and refinement. The attention to detail is remarkable; every fold of fabric meticulously rendered with vibrant colors that bring life to their ballgowns. Degas' direct gaze technique draws us in further, allowing us to connect with these individuals from another era. Their expressions reveal a sense of familiarity and warmth - perhaps hinting at their familial bond or even a deeper connection as husband and wife. As we explore this artwork further, it becomes evident that family played an important role in Degas' artistic journey. It is believed that Therese was not only his sister but also served as one of his favorite models throughout his career. Displayed proudly at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, this painting stands testament to Degas' mastery of impressionism while offering viewers an insight into his personal world filled with love, partnership, and creative inspiration.
