DEGAS, Edgar
Hilaire-Germain-Edgar De Gas, French painter and sculptor, known especially for his paintings of ballet dancers. Other subjects that he frequently returned to include
horse races, women bathing, and portraits of friends and relatives.
Degas combined a modern focus on the creation of unusual compositions and the rendering of movement with a traditional emphasis on skillful drawing. Degas is
usually classed with the Impressionism, but he stood somewhat apart from the other artists in this group. He did not share the Impressionists' fascination with natural
light and its effects, and he disliked painting directly from nature, preferring instead to work in the studio.
Moreover, Degas had little interest in landscape - the primary subject matter of the Impressionists - and concentrated instead on the human figure. Also unlike the
Impressionists, Degas was interested in drawing and emphasized line in his work.
