About this picture
Horse is a public-domain drawing by Edgar Degas, dated c. 1890. Chalk and pastel counterproof on wove paper. The file comes from National Gallery of Art.
“Horse” (c. 1890) is cropped the way Degas liked: dancers, bathers, or a room seen as if glanced at, not arranged for a formal portrait.
About the artist
Edgar Degas (1834–1917) was a French artist of dancers, bathers, races, and ordinary rooms. He drew constantly and often cropped a scene as if it had been glanced at, rather than posed for a formal portrait.
