Product description
Soft light filters across an expansive landscape where the nervous energy of the paddock meets the stillness of the countryside. This print captures the moments before a race, where figures in vibrant red, yellow, and blue silks sit atop their mounts against a backdrop of sun-drenched hills.
About Edgar Degas
Edgar Degas worked in pastel, oil and sculpture, and often used unusual, cropped viewpoints inspired by photography. 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. Impressionist paintings use visible brushstrokes and soft colour that feel bright and airy on a wall.
Styling this Edgar Degas print
With its blue, red and yellow palette and vibrant atmosphere, this Edgar Degas print brings instant personality to a wall. In a bedroom, hang “Jockeys on Horseback before Distant Hills” above the bed: 20×30″ or 24×36″ for impact, 12×18″ for a smaller wall. The blue, red and yellow palette of “Jockeys on Horseback before Distant Hills” pairs naturally with white walls, navy or denim textiles and pale oak; finish it with a simple black or oak frame.
