Degas was known for his fascination with ballet dancers, often depicting them in various stages of practice or performance. This particular artwork exemplifies his ability to capture not only their physicality but also their inner emotions and struggles. Displayed at the State Hermitage Museum in St. Petersburg, Russia, this piece has become an iconic representation of impressionist art.
