More about this artwork

Welcome to our exploration of "Abstract Lines" by Edgar Degas, created in 1877. This intriguing artwork deviates notably from the artist's best-known depictions of dancers and bathers. Here, Degas engages the viewer with a composition of stark simplicity and geometric abstraction.The artwork displays a series of fragmented lines and shapes including what appears to be an incomplete drawing of two geometric forms, possibly cubes, outlined with light pencil sketches on a time-toned background. The first form at the top appears more defined, seeming to float above a smaller, less distinct sketch below it, linked with a lightly drawn diagonal line."Abstract Lines" suggests a study of perspective or an experiment with spatial composition. The understated execution invites viewers to delve into the essence of form and the interplay of space and dimensionality.This piece stands as a testament to Degas' remarkable versatility and his willingness to explore beyond the conventional boundaries of his time.
