The story behind the motif
Poster featuring a unique and beautiful painting created by the iconic artist Edgar Degas. The painting is called Two Dancers, Half-length and on the left in the lower edge of the picture you can make out Degas' signature.
The picture is painted with pastels and charcoal pencils on tracing paper and on it we see two dancers with identical, yellowish dresses and red, updo hair. Degas' choice of material is revealed in the painting's unique structure.
Edgar Degas was a French artist, printmaker and sculptor. In addition to portraits, his early pictures were often history paintings. Later, Degas also became interested in modern Parisian life and was influenced by the artist Édouard Manet. Degas' innovation and his sense of movement in the images make him one of the great early modernists of the late 19th century.
