Description
English: This pastel shows two dancers preparing for their performance. Their gestures indicate that they are adjusting their earrings and coiffures. Degas has limited his palette to two colours: pink and blue-green. As so often in his work, he chose to focus on the dancers’ movements and poses – their bodies rather than the girls as individuals. This pastel is part of a series of pictures based on photographs Degas took in his studio in Montmartre.
Svenska: Pastellen föreställer två dansöser som förbereder sig inför en föreställning. Av rörelserna att döma justerar de sina örhängen och frisyrer. Degas har begränsat sin palett till endast två färger: rosa och blå-grön. Som ofta valde han att fokusera på dansösernas rörelser och poser – deras kroppar snarare än dem som individer. Pastellen ingår i en serie bilder till vilka Degas använde fotografier tagna i ateljén på Montmartre som förlagor.
