Degas Dance Class Ballet Dancers Ballerina Art Magnet

Degas Dancers - This image of ballet dancers is based on Edgar Degas "Dance Class", a painting commissioned in 1872 that is typical of Edgar Degas paintings of dancers in the studio. The ballet dancer in the foreground is looking down, standing in front of a series of dancers in the dance class in back of her, doing several dance poses. "Dance Class" is set in a rehearsal room in the Paris Opera.
