EDITORS COMMENTS

This exquisite artwork, measuring 56.2 by 38.7 cm, can be found at The Art Institute of Chicago in Illinois, USA. Degas, a prominent figure in the Impressionist art movement of the late nineteenth century, was known for his fascination with ballet dancers and their graceful movements. In this particular piece, he captures the essence of classical dance through the depiction of a woman poised to begin her performance. The sculpture showcases Degas' mastery in capturing human form and movement with incredible detail and precision. The dancer's right foot is elegantly extended forward as she prepares to take her first step on stage. Her naked body exudes femininity and strength as she embodies the beauty and grace associated with ballet. With its metallic coloration and lifelike appearance, this bronze sculpture brings Degas' vision to life. It serves as a testament to his skill as both a painter and sculptor during the nineteenth century. "Dancer Ready to Dance, Right Foot Forward" is not just an object or work of art; it represents Degas' deep appreciation for dance as an art form. Through this masterpiece, viewers are transported into the world of ballet where every movement tells a story filled with passion and dedication.
