The new book of the “Biography of Art” series tells about the multiplicity of the creative path of Degas: about Degas-artist, Degas-sculptor, Degas-photographer, expert on the opera and ballet and the master to depict human souls through the movements of the bodies.
"I want to be famous and unknown, ”said Edgar Degas. He was made by the famous dancers, Zhokei, a swimsuit. But he remained unknown - so these stories overshadowed the rest of his work: historical painting, portraits, landscapes. Creativity also absorbed the artist’s personal life, leaving him lonely.

A decisive meeting with Engr, a long trip to Italy, friendship with Gustav Moro, Eduar Mane, a trip to America and other events that influenced Degas, as well as his hobbies: opera, ballet, photography, art. The book contains about 200 different documents and evidence that will help to love the author of spectacular pastels, dazzling and concise compositions.
