Painting Description
"Woman Having Her Hair Combed" is an artwork by the French artist Edgar Degas, created circa 1886-1888. This pastel drawing is part of Degas's broader exploration of intimate, everyday scenes that often featured women in various states of grooming and personal care. The work is exemplary of Degas's interest in capturing the fleeting moments of modern life and his innovative approach to composition and color.
The piece depicts a woman seated in a private setting, engaged in the mundane yet intimate act of having her hair combed. The model's pose and the handling of the pastel medium reflect Degas's mastery in rendering the human figure and his ability to convey texture and movement. The composition is notable for its close cropping, which enhances the sense of immediacy and the viewer's voyeuristic experience. The artwork's perspective suggests the influence of Japanese prints, which Degas and many of his contemporaries admired for their unconventional viewpoints and flat areas of color.
"Woman Having Her Hair Combed" is part of a series of similar works by Degas that include women bathing, dressing, and engaging in other aspects of their toilette. These works often challenge traditional representations of the female form by focusing on non-idealized, candid moments rather than mythological or historical subjects. Degas's use of pastels allowed him to blend colors directly on the paper, creating a rich, tactile surface that contributes to the sensuous quality of the scene.
The artwork is significant in the context of Degas's oeuvre and the broader Impressionist movement, as it exemplifies the shift towards modern subject matter and the exploration of new techniques in art-making. "Woman Having Her Hair Combed" is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied and admired for its technical and aesthetic qualities, as well as its insightful portrayal of contemporary Parisian life.
