Product description

Rooted in the revolutionary French Impressionist movement of the late 19th century, this composition captures the fleeting moments of preparation on the turf. Degas horse racing wall art masterfully utilizes loose, expressive brushstrokes to depict jockeys and their mounts in a state of restless anticipation.

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. Natural history illustration combined careful observation with artistry long before photography. The original dates from 1884. Impressionist painters often used pure, unmixed colours placed side by side to create vibrancy.

Styling this Edgar Degas print

Its yellow palette makes this Edgar Degas print easy to build a room around. As a landscape piece, “Before the Race” fills the space above the bed at 24×36″, while 12×18″ suits a smaller wall, and it is a natural fit for a bedroom. Finish “Before the Race” with a black or antique-gold frame: its yellow palette warms up grey or white walls and suits natural wood and brass accents.
