Degas: The Art Institute of Chicago Artists in Focus

Painter and draftsman, graphic artist and sculptor, creator of some of the finest pastels of his or any other time, the Impressionist Edgar Degas combined genius with technical bravura. This selection of his works from the collection of the Art Institute of Chicago is accompanied by a survey, by a Degas specialist, of his career and his lifelong exploration of motifs and ideas. The book is one of a series intended for the general reader, but also considered suitable for students and scholars.
