"Seated Dancer in Profile" is a pastel and charcoal drawing by the French artist Edgar Degas, created circa 1879. This work is part of Degas's extensive series of studies focusing on ballet dancers, a subject for which he is particularly renowned. The drawing depicts a solitary dancer in a moment of repose, seated and viewed in profile, which reflects Degas's interest in capturing the candid, behind-the-scenes moments of ballet rehearsals and performances.

Edgar Degas (1834–1917) was a prominent Impressionist artist known for his innovative composition and his exploration of movement, particularly in relation to dancers. His works often feature unusual viewpoints and a sense of spontaneity, which were radical departures from the traditional, carefully composed historical and mythological scenes prevalent during his time. Degas's dancers are typically portrayed in various states of action or rest, highlighting the physical demands and grace of the art form.

"Seated Dancer in Profile" exemplifies Degas's mastery of pastels, showcasing his ability to convey texture, form, and the interplay of light and shadow. The choice of medium allows for both precision and softness, capturing the delicate tutu and the dancer's relaxed posture with a sense of immediacy. The artwork is a testament to Degas's fascination with the human figure and his lifelong dedication to the study of ballet.

As with many of Degas's dancer studies, "Seated Dancer in Profile" is celebrated for its intimate and informal portrayal of the subject, offering a glimpse into the private world of dancers beyond the public spectacle of the stage. The piece is held in high regard for its contribution to the understanding of Impressionism and its influence on the development of modern art. It remains an important work within Degas's oeuvre and continues to be studied and admired for its artistic significance and its insight into the world of dance.
