Product description
There is a particular quality of light that exists only behind the heavy velvet curtains of a late-century stage. Within this print, the artist captures that fleeting moment as ballerinas adjust their straps and prepare for the performance ahead. The composition is alive with thick, expressive brushstrokes in shades of fiery orange, deep emerald green, and a soft, hazy gold that suggests the glow of gaslight or a setting sun.
About Edgar Degas
Edgar Degas (1834–1917) exhibited with the Impressionists but preferred to call himself a realist. His soft pastel colour suits bedrooms, dressing areas and calm living spaces. Impressionist painters often used pure, unmixed colours placed side by side to create vibrancy. The original dates from 1899.
Styling this Edgar Degas print
Green, gold and orange tones give this Edgar Degas print a vibrant character that holds a room. In a bedroom, hang “Four Dancers” above the bed: 20×30″ or 24×36″ for impact, 12×18″ for a smaller wall. Finish “Four Dancers” with a black or antique-gold frame: its green, gold and orange palette sits beautifully with houseplants, terracotta and cream textiles.
