EDGAR DEGAS. Three Dancers Preparing for Class

Three Dancers Preparing for Class. Artist: Edgar Degas (French, Paris 1834-1917 Paris). Dimensions: 21 1/2 x 20 1/2 in. (54.6 x 52.1 cm). Date: after 1878.
The seated dancer in this pastel was derived from a study dated December 1878 of the fifteen-year-old Melina Darde. That drawing and those which explored the poses of the two dancers in the foreground belonged to a stock of figure drawings that Degas used for his larger compositions. There is another variant of this pastel also of the mid-1880s (Private collection).
