"Danseuse, Main à la Nuque" (Dancer, Hand at the Nape) is a celebrated sculpture by the French artist Edgar Degas, renowned for his contributions to Impressionism and particularly for his depictions of dancers. Created circa 1896-1911, this sculpture is one of the many studies of dancers that Degas produced during his career, showcasing his fascination with the movement and form of the human body.

The sculpture is part of a series of bronzes that were cast posthumously from wax models found in Degas's studio after his death in 1917. "Danseuse, Main à la Nuque" features a young ballet dancer in a relaxed pose, with one hand resting at the back of her neck, a characteristic example of Degas's intimate and candid studies of dancers at rest. The figure stands with one leg slightly bent, conveying a sense of naturalism and ease, a departure from the more traditional and formal depictions of ballet dancers on stage.

The work reflects Degas's innovative approach to sculpture, where he often manipulated wax and other materials to create dynamic forms that convey the impression of movement and spontaneity. His sculptures were not as widely known during his lifetime as his paintings and pastels, but they have since gained recognition for their contribution to modern sculpture.

"Danseuse, Main à la Nuque" is significant in the context of Degas's oeuvre as it encapsulates his interest in the behind-the-scenes world of the ballet, a recurring theme in his work. The sculpture is exemplary of his mastery in capturing the grace and physicality of dancers, a subject that has made his work enduringly popular and influential in the history of art.

The bronze casts of Degas's sculptures, including "Danseuse, Main à la Nuque," have been exhibited in numerous museums and galleries around the world, allowing a wide audience to appreciate the artist's sculptural legacy. The original wax models, along with the bronzes, provide insight into Degas's working methods and his unceasing exploration of form and movement.
