EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Edgar Degas' masterpiece, "Horse Galloping on the Right Foot" created in the late 1880s. Known for his exceptional talent in capturing movement and realism, Degas brings this magnificent animal to life through his unique artistic style. The sculpture itself is a testament to Degas' mastery of form and detail. Crafted using pigmented beeswax, plastiline, metal armature, cork, and organic material on a wooden base, every element contributes to the lifelike representation of the galloping horse. The brown color palette adds depth and richness to the artwork. Degas expertly captures the horse's profile as it gallops with its right foot forward. This side view allows viewers to appreciate both the power and grace of this majestic creature. The direction of its movement creates a sense of energy frozen in time. Displayed at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, this piece exemplifies Degas' contribution to 19th-century art. As one of France's most celebrated artists during that era, he left an indelible mark on artistic movements such as realism. This print serves as a reminder of Degas' profound ability to capture fleeting moments with incredible precision and emotion. It invites us into a world where horses come alive before our eyes—a true testament to his enduring legacy as an artist.
