EDGAR DEGAS. Young Woman with Ibis

Young Woman with Ibis. Artist: Edgar Degas (French, Paris 1834-1917 Paris). Dimensions: 39 3/8 x 29 1/2 in. (100 x 74.9 cm). Date: 1860-62.
Degas made sketches of this composition in a notebook he used during his second stay in Rome in 1857-58. Originally conceived as a depiction of a pensive woman, the picture assumed a mysterious air when Degas added the imaginary Middle Eastern cityscape, the pink flowers, and the two red ibises around 1860-62. About the same time he also considered adding the brilliant birds to his large historical painting <i>Semiramis Building Babylon</i> (Musée d'Orsay, Paris).
