Description:
- Color print 'The Ironers' by Edgar Degas.
- Edgar Degas (1834-1917) was a French painter, sculptor, and engraver. Considered one of the founders of Impressionism, although he himself called it Realism. He was one of the greatest draftsmen in history for his masterful capture of the sensations of life and movement, especially in his works of dancers, horse races, and nudes.
