ballet-rehearsal-on-stage by Edgar Degas -1874
In this splendid masterpiece, French Impressionist Edgar Degas show the dancers in a different way. The dancers are not only dancing but they are stretching and yawning. Though all of the dancers shown are dressed uniformly, their faces are not uniform. Every dancer has a different facial expression, The dancers do not convey the beauty typically seen on the stage. Yet, it is a very delicate and beautiful painting.
After Edgar Degas - 'Ballet Rehearsal on stage'
This beautiful multi-media piece is made up of recycled paper, tissue paper, charcoal and chalk pastels. The young artists of Year Six developed this after several weeks in a after school club with myself.
