Painting Description
"Combing the Hair" (La Coiffure) is an unfinished oil painting by French artist Edgar Degas, created around 1895. Known for his depictions of Parisian life and his exploration of the world of dance, Degas often focused on the intimate, behind-the-scenes moments of his subjects. This painting, however, deviates from his usual ballet scenes and instead captures a private moment of a woman combing her hair.
The painting, which is housed in the National Gallery in London, is one of Degas' series of 'toilette' scenes, which explore the theme of women grooming. The work is noted for its bold composition and the dynamic tension created by the diagonal lines of the woman's arms and the cascading red hair. Despite being unfinished, the painting is considered a significant example of Degas' later work, demonstrating his evolving style and his innovative use of color and form.
The subject of the painting, a woman absorbed in her toilette, is a recurring theme in Degas' work, reflecting his interest in the private, unguarded moments of women's lives. The painting's unfinished status offers a glimpse into Degas' working methods and his willingness to leave a work incomplete, suggesting a moment caught in time. The painting's composition, with the woman's figure cropped and off-center, reflects Degas' innovative approach to composition, influenced by photography and Japanese prints.
"Combing the Hair" is a testament to Degas' ability to capture the beauty and intimacy of everyday life, and his ongoing exploration of the themes of modernity, femininity, and the passage of time.
