"The Ballet from 'Robert le Diable'" is an 1871 painting by French artist Edgar Degas, who is renowned for his works depicting dancers. This painting is particularly significant as it captures a scene from Giacomo Meyerbeer's opera "Robert le Diable," which was first performed in 1831. The opera was a sensation in its time and is considered one of the earliest grand operas. Degas's painting reflects his interest in the performing arts, particularly ballet, which would become a central theme throughout his career.

In this work, Degas illustrates a moment from the ballet sequence of the opera, which takes place in the ruins of a convent and features the ghosts of nuns. The painting showcases Degas's skill in rendering movement and his ability to convey the atmospheric lighting of the stage, which highlights the ethereal quality of the ghostly dancers. His use of color and composition draws the viewer's attention to the dancers, while the audience is relegated to the shadows, emphasizing the separation between the world of the performance and that of the spectators.

"The Ballet from 'Robert le Diable'" is part of a series of works by Degas that explore the theme of the ballet, and it exemplifies his lifelong fascination with the Paris Opera. The painting is considered an important work in Degas's oeuvre, offering insight into his artistic process and his innovative approach to capturing the dynamic and fleeting moments of live performance. It is held in the collection of the Victoria and Albert Museum in London, where it continues to be studied and admired for its artistic and historical significance.
