Though known as the painter of ballet subjects, Edgar Hilaire German Degas was far more than that. He was a portralist of great subtlety and distinction, a drafstman of infinie resoure and one of the most exciting sculptors of his century. He was born in Paris in 1834 of wealthy upper-class parents and it was supposed that he would follow his father's career as a banker. Edgar, however, had other ideas.
