This is a comprehensive overview of the pioneering work of Edgar Degas. Packed with over 200 illustrations, this superb book highlights Degas's formal innovation, commitment to realism and his exploration of the light and dark sides of contemporary society. The author brings new insights to even the best-known of Degas's works. Penetrating analysis is interspersed with biographical details, and his artistic trajectory is placed within the context of the major currents of 19th-century art, with David, Ingres, Delacroix, Courbet and the Impressionists among the key points of reference. We see not only the traditions that influenced him but also the striking originality which foreshadowed the art of the 20th century.
