About the book

Degas by Himself presents the life and artistic ideas of Edgar Degas through his own words and works. Best known for his paintings and drawings of ballet dancers, Degas also depicted horse racing, cafés, laundresses, portraits and scenes from modern Parisian life. By combining paintings, drawings and other works with letters, observations and contemporary material, the book allows Degas's distinctive personality to emerge alongside his art. It provides insight into his working methods, artistic relationships and fascination with movement, composition and everyday modern life.
