EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures Edgar Degas' masterpiece, "Horse Clearing an Obstacle; Chevals enlevant sur l Obstacle". Created between 1882 and 1895, this bronze sculpture showcases Degas' mastery of impressionistic art. Standing at a height of 27cm, the horse in mid-leap is depicted with incredible detail and strength. The dark brown patina adds depth to the artwork, emphasizing the horse's powerful posture as it effortlessly clears the obstacle. With its legs raised and hind leg extended gracefully behind, the equine exudes determination and agility. Degas' representation of this moment frozen in time highlights his ability to capture movement and action within his sculptures. The artist's use of metalwork brings life to the sculpture, making it feel almost tangible. Displayed against a white background, this close-up shot allows us to appreciate every intricate detail of Degas' work. The strong presence of the horse commands attention while showcasing both its physical prowess and beauty. As we gaze upon this magnificent piece from a private collection, we are reminded of Degas' contribution to French art during the late nineteenth century. His portrayal of horses reflects not only their physical activity but also their gracefulness and determination. Overall, this photograph offers us a glimpse into Degas' artistic genius through his depiction of one object - a leaping horse - capturing our imagination with its energy and power.
