''Danseuse Mettant Son Chausson'' (English: "Dancer Putting on Her Slipper") is a pastel and charcoal drawing by French artist Edgar Degas, created circa 1873. The work is part of Degas's extensive series of ballet dancers, which occupied much of his artistic career and for which he is particularly renowned. Degas frequently visited the Paris Opéra, where he was captivated by the dancers, often sketching them as they rehearsed or waited in the wings.

This drawing depicts a young ballerina as she adjusts her slipper, a moment capturing the behind-the-scenes reality of a dancer's life. Degas's interest in ballet extended beyond the glamour of the stage to the rigorous and sometimes mundane aspects of the dancers' routines. His works in this genre are celebrated for their candid portrayal of movement and the human form, as well as their innovative use of composition and perspective.

In "Danseuse Mettant Son Chausson," Degas employs his characteristic pastel technique, blending color and form to create a sense of texture and depth. The dancer is typically shown in an off-center composition, emphasizing the asymmetry and spontaneity of the moment. The use of light and shadow in the piece highlights the physical exertion and concentration of the dancer, while the blurred background suggests the transient nature of the moment.

This artwork is an example of Degas's contribution to Impressionism, although he preferred to be called a realist. His focus on the figure in motion and the fleeting moments of everyday life align with the broader Impressionist movement's preoccupation with modernity and the changing urban landscape. "Danseuse Mettant Son Chausson" not only reflects Degas's mastery of form and movement but also provides insight into the 19th-century Parisian ballet culture.

The drawing is held in a private collection, and it has been exhibited in various art institutions around the world, contributing to the understanding of Degas's oeuvre and the broader context of Impressionist art. As with many of Degas's ballet scenes, this work continues to be studied and admired for its technical brilliance and its evocative portrayal of the world of dance.
