Impressionism, a historical reconstruction:

Edgar Degas

(1834-1917)

At the 4th impressionist exposition in 1879

an impression of his exhibited art-works

 

General introduction:
On this page you will find an accounted impression of the about 26 art-works that were shown by Degas at the 4th ‘impressionist’ exposition in 1879 (catalogue numbers: 57-81+hc2). Sometimes the identification of a painting is ‘uncertain’, see. For no. 76 ‘portrait’ I couldn’t find an option. No. 67 probably wasn’t exhibited. See link for an account. See also a thematical overview of his exhibited art-works. For explanation of the subscriptions, see. See for the used sources at the bottom of the main page about Edgar Degas. I render the pictures by form and in thematical order. Note: If you double click on the first (of a cluster of) pictures and then click on full screen, you can create a slideshow. On a smartphone or laptop you can also zoom in. Enjoy!
