Edgar Degas, 1885 - Portrait of a Young Woman - fine art print

Artwork description from The Metropolitan Museum of Art (© Copyright - The Metropolitan Museum of Art - www.metmuseum.org)

This small portrait appears to be a rapidly executed study of mood and figure type. Degas, who was closely attuned to the nuances of gesture and expression, focused on capturing the woman’s contemplative gaze, treating her costume and the background in a more summary fashion.
