Degas: An Intimate Portrait is a book written by Ambroise Vollard that provides an in-depth exploration of the life and work of the famous French Impressionist painter, Edgar Degas. Vollard, who was a close friend of Degas, offers a unique perspective on the artist, providing personal anecdotes and insights into his personality, creative process, and artistic vision. The book is divided into chapters that cover different aspects of Degas' life, including his early years, his relationship with other artists, his love of dance and the theater, and his later years when he struggled with failing eyesight. Throughout the book, Vollard includes numerous reproductions of Degas' artwork, providing readers with a visual representation of the artist's style and technique. Overall, Degas: An Intimate Portrait is a fascinating and informative read for anyone interested in the life and work of one of the most important artists of the Impressionist movement.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
