The painting shows two ballerinas backstage. One has her back turned and is leaning forward, the other is standing and touching her. They are dressed in characteristic ballet costumes with tulle skirts, and the light falls on their posing bodies. Their figures are rendered with soft brushes of colour, creating a sense of movement and lightness. The atmosphere of the work is intimate and reveals the mystery of the art of ballet.

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.
