EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures a moment frozen in time, showcasing the incredible talent of renowned artist Edgar Degas. The image depicts a naked man leaning down to pick up an object, his body contorted in an elegant yet vulnerable pose. Created between 1859 and 1861, this graphite drawing on velin paper showcases Degas' mastery of capturing human form and movement. The subject of this artwork is believed to be a study for "Jephtes Daughter" which can be found at the Smith College Museum of Art in Northampton, Massachusetts. Degas' attention to detail is evident in every stroke of his pencil, as he skillfully renders the curves and shadows that define the figure's physique. Displayed at the Musee des Beaux-Arts Andre Malraux in Le Havre, France, this piece is part of the Olivier Senn collection donated by Helene Senn-Foulds in 2004. The photograph itself was taken by A© Sylvain Collet. Through this print, viewers are invited into Degas' world where beauty meets vulnerability. It serves as a testament to his ability to capture raw emotion through artistry and invites us to contemplate our own relationship with our bodies and surroundings.
