Edgar Degas
French, 1834-1917
The Little Dancer, Aged Fourteen, 1878-81
Bronze
I attended a talk not so very long ago on Degas and movement at the Norton Simon. I was reminded that I had taken this series of photographs of his Little Dancer in the round. I am deeply drawn by the art at the Norton Simon, I love to circle the sculptures and see them from a variety of views. Of all of his pieces, I think this is one of the only ones that he exhibited. I learned more about this sculpture during the talk, but I intend to share more of what I learned in a Monday post at some point in the future. For this post, I mainly wanted to share The Little Dancer in various views.
Also, I'm having a print giveaway that ends on July 30th, the information is here.
