EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the essence of Edgar Degas, one of the most celebrated French Impressionist artists of all time. Taken in 1875 by Marcellin Gilbert Desboutin, this intimate close-up portrait reveals a glimpse into the artist's world. Degas, known for his innovative techniques and unique perspective on art, is depicted with a distinguished moustache and beard that add to his enigmatic charm. The three-quarter view allows us to appreciate every detail of his expressive face, highlighting his piercing eyes and thoughtful expression. The informal nature of this portrait gives us a rare insight into Degas' personality as he appears relaxed and at ease. His disheveled hair adds an element of authenticity to the image, reminding us that even great artists have their moments of vulnerability. Displayed in Yale University Art Gallery in New Haven, CT, USA, this small yet powerful drypoint print showcases Desboutin's skillful craftsmanship. Previously attributed to Italian artist Giuseppe de Nittis but now recognized as Desboutin's work, it serves as a testament to the ever-evolving nature of art attribution. As we gaze upon this timeless piece captured by www. bridgemanimages. com from Fine Art Finder, we are reminded not only of Degas' artistic brilliance but also his lasting impact on the world of impressionism.
