Painting Description
"Woman Combing Her Hair" is an artwork by the French artist Edgar Degas, created between 1905 and 1910. This piece is part of a series of works that Degas devoted to the intimate moments of women's daily lives, particularly focusing on their grooming rituals. The painting depicts a woman in the act of combing her long hair, a subject that allowed Degas to explore themes of beauty, privacy, and the mundane aspects of feminine existence.
Edgar Degas (1834–1917), a prominent figure in the Impressionist movement, was renowned for his innovative composition and his fascination with movement and the human form. Although he is best known for his depictions of dancers, Degas's oeuvre includes a significant number of works portraying women in various states of undress, engaged in personal care activities such as bathing, drying themselves, and combing their hair.
"Woman Combing Her Hair" exemplifies Degas's later period, characterized by a looser brushwork and a bolder use of color compared to his earlier, more finely detailed works. The painting's composition reflects Degas's interest in unusual viewpoints and cropped figures, which often give his works a candid, almost voyeuristic quality. The subject is typically captured off-center, with an emphasis on the sensuous curves of her back and the tactile quality of her hair.
The artwork is executed in pastels, a medium that Degas mastered and frequently employed in his later years. The use of pastels allowed him to blend colors directly on the canvas, creating rich textures and a sense of immediacy. The choice of medium contributes to the overall impression of spontaneity and fleeting beauty that is characteristic of Degas's studies of women.
"Woman Combing Her Hair" is held in a private collection, and like many of Degas's works, it has been exhibited in various art institutions around the world. The piece continues to be studied and admired for its technical mastery and its insightful portrayal of the private, unguarded moments in the lives of women.
