Mrs. Jeantaud front of the mirror

The painting depicts two people, probably women, dressed in period costumes. On the left side is a person with dark hair, who is wrapped in a heavy dark cloth, with her gaze directed towards a mirror. On the right is a second person, also in dark clothing, wearing a hat with decorations, sitting and looking to the side. The scene appears calm with attention to detail in the clothing and interior, including a blue patterned element in the background.

Edgar Degas (1834-1917). French painter and sculptor. He is considered one of the founders of Impressionism, although he called himself a realist. As an 1870s painter associated with dance, over half his works are devoted to depicting ballerinas, ballet performances and practices. His portrayal of motion is one of the most perfect seen. He also devoted himself to portraiture, and his portraits and nudes are among the most admired in history.
