Edgar Degas. 1834 - 1917..
Born in Paris on the 19th July 1834.
Studied art under the painter Lamothes and at 18 began his studies at the Ecole des Beaux Arts, Paris. Soon however he was tempted to move to Italy where he studied the Renaissance movement and paintings. After five years in Italy he returned to Paris and started to paint the portraits of his own family and close friends. His involvement with the artist Manet led him into painting theatrical backdrops.
It was around 1869 that his interest in the ballet dancer began and this interest in the female ballet dancer remained one of his favorite subjects to paint for the rest of his life. Other favorite subjects were the racecourses and racehorses and cafe scenes in Paris. His use of the pastels medium was arrived at by his early study of the paintings of Ingres, and Degas found the medium to his liking when sketching the movement and form of the ballet dancer. Degas was a great painter of the female form and was well liked throughout the art establishment. He died on September 27th 1917, Paris leaving thousands of drawings and sketches in his preferred medium of pastels.
