«The Life and Works of Degas» is Douglas Mannering's art history essay on Edgar Degas, published by Parragon Plus in hardcover (79 pages, in English).
The book reviews the career of the painter Edgar Degas, a key figure of Impressionism who, however, preferred to focus on composition, drawing and form rather than light and color. His techniques, influenced by Japanese prints, seek a snapshot effect, with figures cut off by the frame. It includes famous works such as «At the Races, in front of the Stand», «The Dance Class» and realistic nudes like «The Bath».
Illustrated volume from the «World's Great Artists» series. The author is Douglas Mannering and the painter covered is Edgar Degas.
Suitable for young people aged 12 and over and for any reader wanting a visual introduction to Degas's work.
