EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Edgar Degas' masterpiece, "Horse with Head Lowered" created in the 1880s or early 1890s. Degas, a renowned French artist associated with the artistic movement of realism, expertly captures the essence and grace of this majestic animal. The sculpture itself is crafted from pigmented beeswax, clay, metal armature, and wood. It stands proudly on a wooden base, its brown color blending harmoniously with its surroundings. The horse's head is lowered as if lost in deep contemplation or perhaps immersed in a moment of tranquility. Degas skillfully portrays the horse's profile view, allowing us to admire every intricate detail of its muscular form and elegant features. The sculpture exudes an air of authenticity that epitomizes Degas' commitment to capturing life-like representations. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington DC, this artwork serves as a testament to Degas' exceptional talent and his contribution to art history. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, we are transported back to the 19th century countryside where horses were not only symbols of strength but also sources of inspiration for artists like Degas. Through this photograph print by Heritage Images, we can appreciate both the craftsmanship behind this stunning statue and Degas' ability to breathe life into his subjects through his meticulous attention to detail.
