''Mlle Fiocre in the Ballet 'La Source''' is an 1867-1868 painting by the French artist Edgar Degas, which depicts Eugénie Fiocre, a principal dancer at the Paris Opéra Ballet, in a scene from the ballet 'La Source'. Degas, renowned for his works centered on ballet and dancers, captures Fiocre in a moment of repose, blending the real with the imagined, as it is uncertain whether the scene represents an actual performance or a rehearsal.

The painting is a testament to Degas's interest in capturing the movement and grace of dancers, a theme that would dominate much of his artistic career. 'La Source' was a ballet that premiered in 1866, with music by Léo Delibes and Ludwig Minkus, and choreography by Arthur Saint-Léon. Fiocre was celebrated for her role in the ballet, and Degas's portrayal of her reflects the era's fascination with the exotic and picturesque, as evidenced by her costume and the oriental elements in the scene.

Degas's technique in 'Mlle Fiocre in the Ballet 'La Source'' is characteristic of his early experiments with the convergence of traditional portraiture and the spontaneity of impressionist sensibilities. The painting's composition, with its unusual perspective and emphasis on the figure's movement and poise, showcases Degas's innovative approach to depicting contemporary subjects.

This work is part of a series of ballet-themed artworks that Degas produced throughout his career, which not only celebrate the beauty of the ballet but also provide insight into the 19th-century Parisian cultural milieu. 'Mlle Fiocre in the Ballet 'La Source'' is held in the collection of the Brooklyn Museum, New York, and remains a significant piece within Degas's oeuvre, illustrating the artist's mastery in portraying the ephemeral world of dance.
