Alisha Gratehouse © Masterpiece Society 2020 Edgar Degas (July 19, 1834)

Recommended Videos:

 Degas Biography (Goodbye-Art Academy)  Degas, The Dance Class (Smarthistory)  Little Girl Practicing at the Barre (The Met)  Degas, At the Races in the Countryside (Smarthistory)  Degas, The Bellelli Family (Smarthistory)  Insights: Degas Dancers (Royal Opera House)  The Impressionists (BBC 3-part Mini Series) Part One, Part Two, Part Three *NOTE: I can’t find a rating on this, but it would most likely be TV-14. There are nude models shown from the back and side (no frontal nudity, but nudity nonetheless) and artwork with nudes (including breasts). Furthermore, the dialogue at times is a bit off-color. However, this is actually a well-made and quite moving account of the lives of the main Impressionists told from Degas’s point of view – their friendships, their struggles, their artwork. It is all true, based on letters, interviews and reports of the time. I’d highly recommend that at least you watch it to gain a better understanding of Impressionism.
