Details: French artist Edward Degas (1834-1917) is renowned for his skill in drawing and painting the human figure in motion. His style is most characterized by his expressive painting style in combination with his snapshot perspective. The Impressionist movement and his personal discovery of Japanese prints influenced Degas choice to paint ordinary people involved in the acts of practiced motion, such as dancers and horse riders.
