In Degas’s attempt to catch the action of the moment, his ballet dancers
and female nudes are in poses that make no attempt to conceal the
subjects’ physical exertions. His later pastels, like Danseuse Verte
(Green Dancer, 1880) have an elegance unsurpassed by any of his earlier
works.
Degas’ mastery of oil pastel is evident in the free-flowing grace of this
dancer rehearsing her performance. From her outstretched arm to delicate
extended leg, the artwork — here interpreted as a statue — bespeaks
true mastery.
For ten years Degas sketched the young women training and then reused the
sketches for new artworks during the next forty years. The early
rehearsal scenes were done in oil; and in 1878, he started using pastels
for his dancers, nudes and horse-track scenes. Although sometimes
association with Impressionism, his artwork has an unidealized quality
which at times, more closely associates him with Realism.
