Biography: Edgar Degas was born as Hilaire-Germain-Edgar De Gas in 1834 in Paris, France. He died in 1917 at the age of 83, also in Paris. Degas began studying art seriously when still an adolescent, although his father wanted him to become a lawyer. After initially studying law, Degas enrolled at the Ecole des Beaux-Arts in 1855. Starting in 1856, Degas traveled for the next three years in Italy studying the works of the Renaissance masters. In the 1860s, he had a number of paintings accepted by the Paris Salon. Degas showed works in all but one of the Impressionist exhibitions, from 1873 to 1886. He is generally included among the Impressionists, such as Edouard Manet, Paul Cezanne, and Vincent Van Gogh. He painted in more of a Classical than an Impressionist style and did not paint en plein air, but always in his studio. However, his subject matter, scenes from modern Parisian life, was Impressionistic in intent. Degas was one of the first painters to use photography as an aid in depicting action. Degas is best known for his oils, pastels, and sculptures of dancers. Click any thumbnail to view a larger version or make a purchase.
